Piazza's considering the Phillies, yes. Neil Hartman mentioned it on Daily News Live this evening.

I don't necessarily hate the Mets, and I have no hard feelings against him. At least we'll have a semi-decent catcher now.

Except that anyone's deceased grandmother can throw more runners out than Mike Piazza. IMO he'd be a better fit in Anaheim where he could DH, but it looks like he's got his heart set on being an NL catcher.

Piazza is washed up IMO. Also, I as an avid Eagles fan, would never want Troy Aikman on my team.

Rumor also has it that George Steinbrunner has been trying to contact Piazza (to platoon at designated hitter; as we all know, Piazza is no longer suited as a catcher and can barely hold up at first).
This is another one of those low-risk, high-reward signings we've seen so much this year.
