DFAs aren't necessary shut-the-suitcase, forward-the-mail goodbyes, even if they don't bode well for future Mets clubhouse occupancy; sometimes they're just paperwork and the player remains in the organization.



“Signed a deal with the...” means the player is gone and ripe for remembering.



Corey Oswalt may not be through making memories in a Mets uniform.

Corey Oswalt cleared waivers, stick around, is outrighted to Triple-A, gets invited to big league camp.

The problem is that Oswalt does well at AAA, gets called up and does nothing, then goes back to AAA. Rinse and repeat. There's a reason nobody claimed him.
