Shaun Marcum - S - New York Mets

Mets signed RHP Shaun Marcum to a one-year, $4 million contract.
He'll have a chance to earn $4 million more through incentives. The deal was reported Thursday, but Marcum passing a physical was no formality after he dealt with elbow issues last season. The right-hander posted a 3.70 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 7.9 K/9 in 124 innings last year for the Brewers and should give the Mets some solid innings if he can remain healthy.
