Some New York Mets free agents are easier to say goodbye to than others. Others make us squirm a little bit because it’s so difficult to pinpoint exactly what lies ahead for their future.
Among the upcoming Mets free agents, the one I am most unsure about is relief pitcher Justin Wilson. At a young 33-years-old right now, he’s at the age when players might start declining rapidly. However, he’s not nearly as close to receiving AARP benefits in the mail as many still effective relievers in this game.
When New York signed Wilson two years ago after his age 30 season, it was tough to get upset about.
