Now that Johan Santana is out for the year, the Mets ace is R.A Dickey. The should have Dickey in thier rotation, he's good, and reliable but not thier #1 starter.
They should start looking into free agents. Hopefully Santana will be ready for opening day, but assuming he's not, they've gotta get a new ace pitcher. It's time for Omar Minaya (if he doesn't get fired) to start signing big. There a few great free-agents out there this off-season ad the Mets should sign a great pitcher. There a list of good free agents, for an example.
Cliff Lee, Ted Lilly, Aaron Harang, Vicente Padillia, and dontrelle Willis.
If the Mets want a good pitching staff, then they better get these players for next year to replace Johan.
I don't think Dontrelle Willis is a start-of-rotation kind of guy. He has had his problems over the last few years. D
ReplyDeletethey should go after Harang, saying that most teams will be after Lee. anonymous.
ReplyDeleteThe main issue is whether the Wilpons are willing to spend the money to get the Mets the star free agents that they need. Some people think that the Wilpons are not willing to spend money after they lost miilions with their former best buddy Bernie Madoff.
