"D" sounds like the words of a guy in his 30's. Back to the issue at hand...Castillo at leadoff is fine for ST, but I'd prefer to see him at #2, like the Castillo/Pierre duo they had in Florida. Castillo has a decent OBP, makes contact/doesn't K often, has some speed and doesn't mind moving a runner over. Almost like LoDuca from '06...

If I can understand the gist of the thought, that's good enough for me. Must be an age thing. The older you get, the less the trivial things tend to bother you....

I just find it funny that people have to come on here and criticize trivial things...it is a free site...it is a blog, it is not the New York Times or CNN. And on Metsblog, there are not commercials every 5 minutes, there are no popup ads, and there are not advertisements on every page. I just think this site is a fantastic resource for Met fans, and this spring the job they have been doing keeping us updated, and keeping us practically on the field with the players, is amazing. Everyone is entitled to their opinions, but if you are going to criticize the way they write, shouldn't you at least be able to write a sentence with proper punctuation and without using the meaningless word "like" four times in a short paragraph?

And nice use of the word "like" four times. Thanks for joining the truly comical club of folks who MUST criticize the people who run this incredible FREE site, and most of you cannot do it without a stupid post full of errors. Metsblog has outdone its usual outstanding job so far this spring, so please go back to corporate news USA if this site's errors bug you. You come off as not only a jerk, but a really hypocritical, anal, and stupid jerk. “dont” is supposed to be “don’t” with an apostrophe

“gramatical” is spelled “grammatical”

“its” is supposed to be “it’s” with an apostrophe–all four times.

And nice use of the word “like” four times.

"but he is willing to do whatever is asks of him" IS ASKS???? I understand that these guys are trying post stuff quickly but its not like its a 2 page column, its like a 30 word post. Give it a quick proof read. Its like every other post has something like this. I dont mean to come off as a jerk but what is up with all the gramatical errors in the blog posts?

Castillo leading off means they will have average leadoff man and average #3 hitter. Reyes leading off means best leadoff man and one of the best #3 hitter. Lineup is already deep with Church and Murphy batting #6 and 7. They are both capable of 15-20 HRs and 80 RBIs. With KRod and Putz, IF the Mets more points in early innings, it's that much easier for everyone.

That’s difference of more than 20 points. Wright has to be a #3 hitter. Jerry, you are a good man but please please please pleeeeaaaseeee!!!
