Feliciano to weigh options on future with Mets

Written By Unknown on Senin, 25 Maret 2013 | 20.49

PORT ST. LUCIE — Pedro Feliciano will weigh his options, but one of them doesn't include breaking camp with the Mets.

The veteran reliever was informed by team brass on Monday that he won't be part of the 25-man roster for Opening Day, as the Mets prepare to head north with lefties Josh Edgin and Robert Carson in the bullpen.

Feliciano, who last pitched in the big leagues in 2010, must now decide between accepting $100,000 and a minor league assignment or asking for his release. Feliciano said he will decide within the next few days.

Feliciano's velocity - which hovered in the 82-83 mph range for most of the spring - was a concern to the Mets.

Mets reliever Pedro Feliciano throws a bullpen session during the team's first pitchers and catchers workout at spring training in Port St. Lucie last month.

"My velocity is a little down, but I think to get a lefty out you don't have to throw hard," Feliciano said. "Just throw strikes and consistently."

Feliciano had a 2.08 ERA in eight appearances this spring.

"I just thought to be here and throw strikes and get lefties out would open some eyes," Feliciano said. "But they decided differently than I expected."
