Seems like every spring we find a ballplayer with a sweet ride. This year’s leader so far is Alfredo Simon:

Nice. Low key. I like it.
The Mets have signed pitcher Ervin Santana to a minor league deal.
Santana was most recently with the White Sox who designated him for assignment and subsequently released him in late April. It was a earned release, as he allowed 14 runs on 19 hits and six walks with five strikeouts over 13.1 innings before being cut. He only made five starts with the Twins in 2018 due to a an injury, but he was an All-Star in 2017 so why not kick the tires?
Santana will report to extended spring training to kick off the rust. Your guess is as a good as mine as to when or if he’ll pitch in New York this year.
