I definitely thought the Mets should have looked into bringing Endy back. Would have been a great guy to spell Duda late in games. But I think that's going to ultimately be Adam Loewen's job.
Mets seem to be linked to Ryan Theriot and Jack Wilson as options for a reserve infielder. Hopefully neither guy gets more than a 1 year contract, I don't want a repeat of the Minaya regime in needlessly giving more than one year to mediocre players. If I had to pick between the two, I'd take Theriot as I have more confidence in his bat when spelling Murphy.
Once the backup infielder situation is sorted out, I think that might be it for the Mets in terms of Major League deals. Probably would just be Minor League signings for the rest of the way out and seeing who sticks with the team in Spring Training. Painfully quiet offseason but it is what it is.
