Jeremy Reed has all but solidified his spot on the bench, mathematically it will be near to impossible for Reed to be so bad and Sully to be so hot that the team would be justified in switching the two players and no one else is comparable defensively. Today, Reed started in center...

I completed a post the other day, I might add purely speculation in which I pondered whether the Mets were considering moving Nick Evans to 2B. Jose Reyes and David Wright will anchor the left side of the infield for several years to come and there has been some talk of Dan Murphy moving to 1B ...

In 2007, Marlon Anderson parlayed a .319 average in just 60 at-bats into a two year deal worth $2.2 million dollars. Not bad for a bench player who had hit .231 in the first half of that season before being cut by the Dodgers and signed from the scrap heap by Omar Minaya.

Murphy has earned his manager's endearment by batting .412 in September, by batting .455 as a pinch-hitter and by batting .359 overall. And given Manuel's propensity to play Murphy whenever possible, those sample sizes have grown to significant levels.

It's time to take the interim tag off of Jerry Manuel. The Mets are no lock to make the playoffs and could fizzle out the rest of the season, but Manuel has proven that's he's the man for the job. If they don't get into the post-season, it will be because of their leaky...

Assuming that the Mets go with a five player bench and seven relievers in the bullpen, it really leaves just three open bench spots beacause naturally you have the Tatis/Murphy platoon and backup catcher Ramon Castro taking up two of those precious five spots.
