The Mercury signed forward/center Barb Farris to a two-year deal.

Cam, what do you think of this move? I really don't know enough about Barb's game to know if this is good for us or not.

I know we have to replace Lacy....but are the new signings for the Mercury a step up in comparison to our bench last year?

Barb is a physical player, who plays closer to the basket. She is a solid rebounder and will provide some interior toughnes...which was missing at times from last year. She isn't going to start (and she shouldn't), but she is a solid replacement for Lacy/OScott.
