Their offseason was a circus and Omar Minaya is to blame. Minaya had the mula to pursue those free agents listed and lost out to bigger contenders, and even the Oakland Athletcs in signing Sheets. It is inexcusable to have such an unpredictable starting pitching rotation, but go out and pursue players like jason bay. Players like bay will not get this team over the bump, mainaya can think so, but it won't happen in his twisted fucked up perception. Probably the best part of the mets Offseason: Gary Matthews Jr. (-0.8) WAR YES. Yes.

But they have a lot of unknowns going into that pen. Kelvim Escobar hasn't pitched in over a year, who knows how the Japanese guy will be, Parnell has some maturing to do, etc. The only sure things are Feliciano and KRod.

They have a pretty strong unit out there. Kiko Calero was a fantastic addition on a minor league deal. The rotation is an utter debacle. Mets fans should be crying shenanigans over that unit but I've actually seen many defend it. This is almost a good team. The lineup should plate quite a few runs and the defense isn't terrible. They should also do a fine job defending their leads. Getting the lead is going to be a problem when you trot out Johan, 3 #5 types, and whoever else they're trotting out (presumably a 4th #5 type). As a GM, when you can't figure out who your second pitcher is, you've probably stepped in shit over the offseason. That pitching rotation deserves to be on fail blog.
