Mulder got hurt. Hudson has been injured on and off if I remember correctly. Zito has never been hurt. He starts his 35 games every year. He is durable, he doesn't throw real hard either, so he might not get hurt. He is still relatively young, and in my opinion, if the red sox throw 51 million at Mats just to negotiate. Then Zito is worth 6/90 Million. We know Zito can pitch. Zito is a number 1 in my opinion and if he pitches for the Mets I think he will win at least one cy young in the next 5 years. Just my opinion though.
