Marlins, Valdespin Agree To Mi**r League Deal
The Marlins will sign former Mets utility man Jordany Valdespin (http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/v/valdejo02.shtml?utm_campaign=Linker&utm_source=direct&utm_medium=linker-www.typepad.com) to a mi**r league contract, according to Baseball America's J.J. Cooper (on Twitter (https://twitter.com/jjcoop36/status/414113442669555712)). Joe Frisaro of MLB.com tweets (https://twitter.com/JoeFrisaro/status/414162493305401344) that Valdespin's contract does **t contain an invitation to Spring Training and Valdespin will have to earn his way onto the team.
Valdespin, 26, was a persistent source of drama for the Mets, lashing out at manager Terry Collins after being demoted and also being slapped with a 50-game suspension for his involvement in the Biogenesis PED scandal. He is a career .219/.271/.380 hitter in 350 big league plate appearances. The Mets **n-tendered Valdespin in **vember despite the fact that he is **t yet arbitration eligible.
