Mets Retain Freddy Garcia

According to Ben Shpigel of the New York Times, the Mets reassigned starter Freddy Garcia to minor league camp today.  Garcia softened his stance on the minors, as he'll work at extended Spring Training or else head to Triple A as a member of the Mets organization.  The move solidifies Livan Hernandez as the Mets' fifth starter, at least for now.
