Why the Mets should sign Richie Sexson

That's right everyone, I think the Mets should sign Richie Sexson.

The extremely tall right handed first baseman is extremely close to being released by the Seattle Mariners. In 434 at-bats with the Mariners last year, Sexson hit a measly .205. This year, he's batting a cool .219.

Still, I think Sexson should be in the Mets organization for one reason, and one reason only:

• To take the place of Mike Carp in Binghamton if/when Carp gets promoted to New Orleans or, by some stroke of luck, the New York Mets.

Sexson would be a great fit...in double-A.
