Not buying it. Varitek wants alot of money for a catcher. Lowe, although he performed well in the end, was a thorn in the Sox's side for much of the season. Nomar was stinking like unrefrigerated stilton. I think Henry's got nothing to do with it. For my money, this guy has it right:

I am actually excited to see if Theo is going to pull some unexpected present out of the bag. Lets face it, he often keep the big deals under wraps and has been faced with this Pedro situation for a while. I have trouble believing that he doesn't have a surprise waiting in the wings.

Could someone summarize that post from SoSH for me?
Overheard in the office that Petey will not allow an MRI on his right shoulder as part of the Mets' physical.
Posted by rladew on 2004-12-14 17:59:09 +0000
is the resistance to the MRI a religous thing, or does it make it more difficult for a team to make an injured pitcher pitch?

Almost religious, definitely superstitious. But I feel with Pedro a lot of it has to do with the health relizations. There's nothing worse than doctors looking at your throwing shoulder's MRI shreiking, "What the hell is that? How can he even move that thing?" (ie. Brett Saberhagen)

The thing with the MRI is that it will reveal that part of Pedro's shoulder is 90% torn. All the criticism I have read states that the Mets are totally stupid for adding the fourth year.
(My date to Ryan Tacy's wedding, BTW, had sex with Bret Saberhagen.)

That's what I'm saying. There's no conspiracy theory here. He wanted a lot of money and a fourth year is very risky. It's not like Clemens who was simply not performing at Fenway. Pedro actually has a physical situation the fucked him up.
