Free agency isn't the Mets' only option when it comes to looking for a closer. They have interest in the Astros' Jose Valverde, Huston Street of the Rockies, the Mariners' J.J. Putz and Bobby Jenks of the White Sox, according to a story in Saturday's New York Times.
The Mets are in need of a closer because left-hander Billy Wagner is expected to miss the entire 2009 season following Tommy John elbow reconstruction surgery. New York's bullpen this past season had a 4.25 ERA, which ranked 13th in the National League.

Trades could be Mets' route for closer
Jenks isn't going anywhere, so they should forget about it. This should be very interesting.
