Lowe Slipping Away From Mets
Amazin' Avenue —
... sources seem to think that the Braves have offered Derek Lowe a deal on the order of four years and $60 million (there's some debate over whether it is four years guaranteed or three years with an option). This does not bode well for the Mets' pursuit of Lowe, which still (allegedly) teeters on a low-ball offer of $36 million over three years. I wouldn't have thought the Braves to be in financial position to make such a competitive offer for Lowe, but they apparently have and the Mets are already ...
