Player Notes
December 31, 2008
The Dodgers have signed hurler Claudio Vargas to a one-year deal worth $400,000 with $1.4 million in incentives, according to the LA Times.

Our View:The 30-year-old pitcher held a solid 1.19 WHIP over 37 innings with the Mets in 2008, and could compete for a spot in the back of the Dodgers' rotation.
June 24, 2008
The Mets designated Claudio Vargas for assignment after Tuesday's game. Vargas allowed four runs in two relief innings in tonight's contest. Carlos Muniz will replace him on the roster.

Our View:The Mets will be without a long man in their bullpen now. Vargas actually pitched pretty well for them before tonight.
May 29, 2008
Claudio Vargas wasn't pretty on Thursday but he held on long enough to pick up his second win of the season. Vargas allowed four runs over 5.2 innings as he allowed two home runs in the win.

Our View:Vargas has been about what the Mets expected when they brought him into the fold, and that is a solid 5th starter. He doesn't deserve a look unless you are in an NL Only league.
May 13, 2008
Claudio Vargas was recalled to the Mets to take the roster spot of 5 starter Nelson Figueroa and he will start on Wednesday, according to MLB.com.

Our View:With Figueroa out of the way, Vargas figures to be given every chance to take control of the Mets fifth starters spot, the role that the team envisioned for him when they signed him. He is worth picking up in NL Only leagues.
May 9, 2008
Claudio Vargas threw seven scoreless innings for Triple-A New Orleans, allowing only four hits and fanning seven on Thursday.

Our View:Nelson Figueroa was awful in his last start, but the Mets probably won’t replace him with Vargas just yet. With Pedro Martinez making his way back from the DL this month, it could be a moot point.
