Underwhelming, but it fills a need. It also puts them at least a little bit above last year's payroll, I think (for what it's worth). On the other hand, the $15M of AAV going to Wilson and Lowrie could have gotten us Andrew Miller or Zach Britton, without really hurting us in the infield.

Was hoping Mookie was coming back but I guess we could use another lefty. It'd be cool if Wilson had to beat out Zamora for the role of Head Freemankiller

Wouldn't call it underwhelming -- we needed a LHR and he's a decent one. Walks too many but also 10-12 K/9 over the last three seasons. Been on four teams in seven seasons, but that's the life of a LH reliever and, at age 31, he isn't someone we'd expect to fall off a cliff. Career splits actually better vs RHBs than LHBs so not confined just to LOOGY-ness

Mets make Wilson signing official today, bump Gavin Cecchini from the 40-man to make room.
