Damn it!

Makes sense for them. He's Harvey insurance.

[Scott34]

Thank god he's off the list.

 

Care to elaborate?

 

I get the whole PED thing, and I'm not too thrilled about bringing in a cheater but he was a very good pitcher last year and in '12.

[Angel Oracle]

Thank you Mess!

[Halos of Anaheim]

Couldn't be any happier. 40 years old, druggy, fat, pathological liar, only an idiot could think this guy would be a valuable asset to our team.

Correction: Mets and Colon still talking. But are discussing 2 year deal. NOT FINAL YET. Correcting previous tweet.

 

Not a done deal, though it's looking that way

[nando714]

Id like to add him

lol is this real?

[Angels]

Arte would never sign a proven PED user so there was never any chance of him coming here, anyway.

I'm not convinced he's off the PEDs. He'll eventually get caught and serve 100 games or stop using and crash back down to earth. He's a guy that has nothing to lose by taking PEDs.

[bloodbrother]

With Colon off the board, it's looking more and more like it's Garza, Tanaka or bust for the Halos

 

Arroyo is looking for 3yr/$36 mill. No way to that

[Halos of Anaheim]

lol is this real?

Is he not 40 years old?

 

Does he not take drugs to enhance unhealthy, sluggish performance?

 

Is he not fat?

 

Has he not been caught as a cheater and admitted to not using before? 

 

Check, check, check, check.

Any proof or just taking a shot in the dark?

i'm sure the steroids are the elaboration.

Is he not fat?

 

Has he not been caught twice with drugs and admitted to not using before? 

 

Check, check, check, check.

 

He is 40.

 

I don't care about his weight.

 

He's been caught once with drugs.  I guess you're ignoring his numbers.  He would be an asset to this team, definitely.

[Tank]

sorry to see him not come back to anaheim. 

 

we lost a lot of good joke material by him going elsewhere.

Good luck in NY, Shrek

Sources: #Mets, Colon in agreement on two-year, $20M deal, pending physical.

[Halos of Anaheim]

No, he wouldn't. Anything he brings to the team will be nullified when he gets caught again.

 

He gets caught for roids in 2012, comes back the next year and has an even BETTER year at 40 years old (a top 3 year for him in his career). Yup he's definitely not on something. Not worth the risk.

Not bad considering some of us here had him for Blanton money.

This might be the worst argument I've ever seen.  Do you have ANY proof that he's still on the juice?

[Halos of Anaheim]

It's not an argument kid.
