Mets Who Soldier On, 2011

This thread continues the Continuing Careers thread, which can be found ending here, and will later be found in our archives among threads started in January 2010. We start with Koo Dae-Sung, still bringing it down under, and still remembered for doubling off of Randy Johnson.

Tim Redding signs a minor-league deal with Los Angeles, as the calendar turns over and fringey veteran pitchers start to fall. Tim, every day you and Brian Lawrence become more and more the same person.

I'd like to take this opportunity once again to say what a completely worthless piece of shit Tim Redding was as a Met. At least with Brian Lawrence you had no expectations. Not that Redding's were anything more than modest, but he so underwhelmed those, doing jack shit in the exact role he was acquired for until it was way too late. Fuck you, Tim Redding. I hope Albuquerque loses 100 games in 2011.

Chris Carter got a minor league deal with the Rays. I hope he does OK there.

What do you do if you're a smart pitcher of limited physical means, and you've been so beaten up-- both injury-wise AND on the mound-- that even the Royals won't take you back on the cheap? Well, Brian Bannister says, "Konnichiwa, Tokyo!"

Phil Humber, a DFA instead of an A.
