Mets Resign Bartolo Colon

The Mets announced today that they have resigned RHP Bartolo Colon to a 1 year deal worth $7.25 million. Colon is coming off another successful season with a record of 14-13 and an ERA of 4.16. This was a solid signing since the Mets needed a 5th starter after Jon Niese was traded. Colon is a great veteran to have had at the back end of the rotation. He will be a real veteran leader for the Mets young starters Matt Harvey, Jacob deGrom, Steven Matz, and Noah Syndergarrd.
