AJ Griffin, Come on down

Mets sign AJ Griffin to minor league deal to fill the long-haired, bearded ginger role. Was decidedly terrible last year, but could be a good depth signing as he was one a reliable mid-rotation dude. Whatchoo say?

Thank you for that, Peter Gammons.

Man, that sure gets the pitching staff's salad factor back up.

he's got a bad K rate, bad walk rate, gives up home runs, has never actually been very good in any meaningful sample, and will pitch in Vegas until prospects stay healthy and demand the spot.

Was just breaking balls, then you Gammons'd it more than sufficiently.

also he's neither part Lion or part Eagle.

I don't think I'm familiar with AJ Griffin. I saw this thread title, and thought of Alfredo Griffin, who happens to be a different person.

I had the pleasure of attending Chris Flexen's first major league win, at Citi Field, last August 8. The Mets pinned the loss on A.J. Griffin, who was a late insert as starter, replacing Andrew Cashner. I remember being delighted the Mets were facing someone who, in several ways, looked like one of their 2017 starting pitchers.

I completely missed this signing, I think, or already forgot it, but he's starting today's game
