Mets want Beimel

Add another name to the long list of players the Mets "want."

According to Ken Rosenthal:

Add left-hander Joe Beimel to the list of free-agent relievers on the Mets' wish list. The team also is expected to investigate free-agent closers Francisco Rodriguez, Brian Fuentes and Kerry Wood, and will examine trades and internal solutions while reconstructing its bullpen.

Most Mets fan probably remember Beimel as the Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher who missed the 2006 NLDS after he cut his hand on a glass at a bar while in New York and told the team he cut it in his hotel room.

Here are Beimel's career numbers. Last year was Beimel's best year, as he posted a 2.02 ERA in 49 IP.

Worth a look, I guess.
