I think Oly will be to expensive and Sabathia/Sheets will go elsewhere. It's obvious Minaya is gonna go all out for KRod, so expect that to be where we spend the most money. We may also sign a left fielder, although there's not to much available. Wherever we put Murphy, there will be a void at the other position he could have played at... so we will be signing a LF or 2B, absolutely. I'd avoid Hudson because of his splits; he's great in the hitter friendly Chase Field, but not that good on the road. I like the idea of Santana/Lowe/Maine/Pelf/Niese next year.

Hampton was not sharp at all and they had him on the ropes several times. That game should have been like 6 or 7-0 by the 8th but the bats took the game off. Put it on the offense.

Between Niese, Murphy, Evans and the other Reyes. Thats a great point, our farm system has been a pivitol role in being in first place. Between Niese, Murphy, Evans and the other Reyes.

Daniel Murphy, Nick Evans, Jonathan Niese. Lots of guys can have a nice game, but I will say this, for all the experts who said the Mets system was a joke…

The real test is how he performs the second and third times through.... my guess is he'll be good, get smacked around a bit, then go back to being good.
