After looking at the draft situation i think we need jason castro if he is still available. Remember we have two picks in the first round so we could probably get jason castro and josh fields.

You want Castro, but not Skipworth or Posey?

Hicks as the 2nd pitcher? Not Crow? Not even listing Crow?

Fields? Cashner? Big on relievers?

This is a strange list.

I noticed that there is a dearth of top 50 OF prospects in this draft. There are only about five in their top 30, and good deal of those are OF/P or OF/1B. So if the Mets did want a fast moving OF, they don’t have much to chose from.

Give him a break, it was the ’80s. And in his defense, he was drunk and roided out of his mind. (Also explains Cutter’s conception.)

I am not sure how effective a bullpen arm is if he can’t throw strikes. I can see Pelfrey coming out in a pressure sitaution and just walking the first batter he sees befreo setling down, if he ever does.

Pelfrey needs to be carted out there every fifth day, lumps be damned. I think he needs to learn on the job. When he goes down to the minors, he is going to dominate, then come up and still have to adjust to the MLB hitter.
