Report: Mets make offer to Kelvim Escobar [Twitter]

Arangure went on to quote Kelvim Escobar as liking that Johan Santana, Francisco Rodriguez and Henry Blanco were all Mets and that he wants to play with fellow Venezuelans.

As a bullpen arm, Escobar could be a good low-risk, high-reward player, something the Mets will probably see a lot of in spring training.
