Parnell also commented that he is back up to his playing weight, despite some earlier reports which he feels overstated his post-surgery weight loss. His next step will be to work on getting into playing shape to assume what he still believes is his role as the team's closer.
Nevertheless, expect the Mets to acquire a veteran relief option with some closing experience in case Parnell suffers a set back. If that's the case, it would be beneficial to hand the ball over to someone whose really pitched with the game on the line, as opposed to Vic Black and his 18 major league appearances.
