Mets take shot on Escobar as RP: The Mets have signed right-hander Kelvim Escobar to a one-year contract. The team announced the deal on Monday. He was expected to get $1.25 million. Escobar, an 18-game winner in 2007, missed nearly all of the past two seasons with the Angels because of shoulder trouble. If healthy, he would likely work out of the bullpen for the Mets, who are looking for setup help for All-Star closer Francisco Rodriguez. The 33-year-old Escobar has extensive relief experience from his days in Toronto. He came up with the Blue Jays in 1997 and saved 38 games in 2002. Escobar was cleared a few weeks ago to pitch by Mets medical director Dr. David Altchek, who performed shoulder surgery on Escobar in July 2008.

Shoulder - Hoping to be ready for spring training

Fantasy Analysis
Escobar hasn't been a reliable starter in the major leagues since 2007, due to shoulder woes that have derailed his career and had him considering retirement. The offseason free agent is a potential middle reliever or setup man for Francisco Rodriguez at this point. There is a chance he could rise to being a solid setup man, but his Fantasy value is minimal on Draft Day. He needs to prove healthy and worthy of a roster spot -- much less a significant role -- first.
