Mets Get Their "A-Rod"

The signing period for Latin American free agents began on July 2nd, and the Mets signed their own "A-Rod", Dominican third baseman Aderilyn Rodriguez, whom they gave a half million dollar bonus to in exchange for his "John Hancock." It had been rumored that the Mets were going to sign another Dominican third baseman, George Drullal, but that apparently has not happened. I just hope that Aderilyn's girlfriend is not named either "Cindy" or "Madonna." Not exactly the cache of signing Michael Inoa, like the A's did, but I'm sure Omar and company are not done yet.
