Cuban LHP phenom? Yes. Worth $40 - $60 million? I don't think so. Who knows what he'll turn out to be and how healthy he's going to be. Way too much money for a huge risk such as that. Save that money for this off season and shape the Mets into the championship caliber team it was meant to be.
Sure, he can throw 100 and has been clocked to throw 102, but our farm system will not vastly improve just by having him there. Sure, it would be awesome signing him and having him develop as a Met but with all the holes we have in our Major League roster, we can't devote all that money to the minors.
It would be pretty sweet though.
