So, they fixed their pen eh? How long do you suspect K-Rod will last? Wow, he doesn't throw strikes, he's got an amazingly herky jerky motion and I just don't see it. And JJ Putz, well, seems to me it's the same old choking Mets!
Hooray!

Catchers
Oh why, oh my.... Has anyone noticed that the golden slipper no longer fits Chris Coste?
It was a nice run and a great story, but he is totally overmatched in ALL regards now. So it begs the question, why did they let Jason Jaramillo (now starting for the Pirates and hitting .313), and Ronny Paulino (now playing a LOT for the Marlins and hitting .310) go.
Yes Lou Marson is probably their catcher of the future but for right now with Chooch Ruiz clearly the everyday catcher when he gets back, seems to me either Paulino or Jaramillo were a better option to back him up than Coste.
