Perez is 0-3 with a 6.25 ERA in the bigs this season and has refused a minor league assignment that might help him work on his craft and gain confidence. "At some point you have to cut bait," said one of the unidentified players. "You owe him a lot of money, but for what?" The Mets are no stranger to controversy and this saga isn't likely to end well either.
