This team is primed to rock and roll, and the J-Man factor is a big plus. Also love Steve's optimism on Big Pelf and the kid Murphy. If those two have big years, and that looks pretty plausible, we are into October baseball.

Good post. I wonder if Figgy actually goes up over O'Day. I think with Sean Green, he's capable of getting tough lefties out. And Figgy, although he has limited MLB experience, still has lots of heart (not to mention the ability to throw literally every pitch). He has hung on to pitch all around the world, and he's succeeded in these spots, in fact, he's even thrived, as he's won awards for his pitching. I think that type of character and persistence would be nice to have in pen as our long man, at least until Redding is fully ready to go. I know Figgy got knocked around the other day, but I think be was still fresh off the WBC, where he pitched pretty well, against all star caliber hitters. I really like our bench, ESPECIALLY if Evans comes up and stays up, although I can understand Omar wanting him to get more experience in the four corner spots in the minors, which does include 3rd, where apparently he was drafted. But if he does come up and stay for a while, I think we have a strong bench, as I really like Tatis, Evans, and Reed. And of courts Castro's bat is nice, but he wouldn't PH much. This should be a really good team this year. I have a strong feeling that 2009 will be a special year for the Mets. I wouldn't be surprised if they won over 95 games. They won 97 in '06, and is that team necessarily better than this squad? And the first half of '07, they competed for the best record in the game. And from the time General Manuel took over until that sweep of the Brewers, the Mets had the best record in the game, even with that horrid bullpen. Now, the bullpen is a strength, the opposite of what it once was. I can make cases for why each starter will be better than last year- well, it's hard for Johan to be better, but the same? That would be great. And each regular in the lineup should be better than last year ad well. This team, under General Manuel will rock!<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('142008','Craig'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('142008','Craig','Hey.
