If the Mets did nothing else, but sign a starting pitcher like Derek Lowe or Brad Penny, and sign a closer whether it be K-Rod or Brian Fuentes, would you be satisfied with the overall makeup of the team?

Conlin's Defense of Raul Ibanez
I'll admit, when I first heard that the Phillies had signed Raul Ibanez to a three year, $31+ million dollar deal, I wasn't all that excited about it. Then, on Saturday night, my friend Greg who I attend quite a few Phillies games with was spouting off to me about how much...

Often when a team struggles or falls into a slump, fans look for someone to blame. A team just can't be over-matched one day, or possibly get shut down by a strong pitching performance. It's always someone's fault. In the case of the Mets, most people point to an obvious...

The additions of J.J. Putz and Francisco Rodriguez, along with the subtractions of Scott Schoeneweis and Aaron Heilman completely reconstructed the shape of the 2009 Mets bullpen. The 1-2 punch of Putz and K-Rod should be a major strength in late innings, but one weakness that has...
