According to a report from MLBTR: The Mets signed Ramon Ortiz to a minor league deal, according to Gerard Guilfoyle of SNY (via Twitter).
According to that same report Ortiz will start for the Bisons tonight. While not a sexy name and I hope we never see him on the MLB team, it’s a good move for depth.

Nice catch, I guess I was trying to be subliminal.

He’s gotten a pass because of Dickey, Taka, Barajas, Blanco, etc…

well the move was made purely b/c they need someone to start in Buffalo. i mean i think this signing is completely irrelevant for the MLB club but I was just surprised that no-one jumped off the deep end…

Who cares about a player signed to help AAA?

A middle of the season signing to help AAA?
You’d have to show me cause I am having a hard time recalling such situations.
