Those are going to be problems. Sam, you are right about Delgado, last year he would heat up and then miss a week with injuries and it would take him like 10 games to find his swing again and then again he would get hurt. He broke his hand on the last game of the year when Willis hit him. That's another thing that can be bad for him this season. but i'm pretty confident in the team as long as everyone can stay healthy. the bullpen is good but can use help, i can't stand heilman, he's painful to watch and wagner hasn't be what you call dominant especially at the end of last season. but who knows we'll see what happens. one thing for sure the mets are fine for 2 years but after that what will they even do when Alou and Delgado are gone?

Lohse back for this year? I thought that he did good enough to be in our rotation as a number four. HAMELS MYERS KENDRICK LOSHE MOYER That sure looks better than Eaton being in the rotation why are the Phillies not interested in signing K. Lohse back for this year?

As for holes... middle relief, 1B (Delgado will have those 6 week slumps and you know it) and although i like Castillo, he's just real banged up these days and his speed seems gone. That's his game on offense and defense. I also like Alou, but he's old... will be hurt and they won't be able to get his power from anywhere else in the lineup when he's out. Also with Reyes... one of the best, but that was a major disappearing act last season. Just like Rollins, mets can't win unless that guy plays well. I'm also gonna say Wagner... not that lidge has my/our trust, but he has choked in soooo many big games dating back to when he was in houston... us philly fans know it well and you guys learned about it last season. His playoff ERA is something silly, over 5. No one's knocking Pedro... at least i'm not, he's as good as anyone when he's on. I think mainly, what met fans are getting back from philly fans is something we haven't had in a very long time. Confidence. Not that we think this is the best team, but these phillie players aren't scared or intimidated and we know it. We haven't had that in... maybe 30 years? So, if you are 35 or under, you've never seen it. the mets are a good team dude, i’m certainly not arguing that… the rotation looks solid and santana is a beast.

Every position is covered pretty good and the pitching rotation is in great shape. You can't tell me we don't have the best or close to the best 3-4-5 rotation in the majors. You guys can shit on pedro all you want, he's a future hall of famer and i think he might be good. He pitched in 5 games last year and his ERA was suprisingly 2.57. I think he's smart enough to be able to pitch with what he has. Like i said, the phillies are only a few players away from being not good but great. head to head means nothing, where are those supposed holes in the mets? i’m not saying they are perfect but they are pretty damn good.

Let’s see now Mr. Met, was it like this last year:

Mets five wins, 13 lost to the Phillies

Phillies 13 wins, 5 lost to the Mets

Last year the Phils had five of the six starters go down with injuries and still won one more game than the Mets…..oh well

Right... I live in NYC dude... I live here, I work here, I'm from here... and i don't sweat the details on yankee dominance. I don't think the phillies are the better team, but i also don't think the mets are all of a sudden that much better because of one player. Still lots of holes... damn, i really do have to keep making that same point over and over again. i had fun with one of the worst pitching staffs in baseball last year... didn't i? I mean, we should look at all the stats if we're gonna look at them... and that crappy staff did surprisingly well against the mets. haha… like there’s a difference between 26 and 27… but if i was really in NYC, I’d know that.
