Mon, 20 Apr 2009 18:28:53 +0000 http://www.metsblog.com/2009/04/20/poll-biggest-worry/#IDComment19487604 http://www.metsblog.com/2009/04/20/poll-biggest-worry/#IDComment19487220 Its not about the hitting coming around. Its about hitting w/RISP. What will it come around too? last years numbers? In 2008, 12th out of 16 in BAA, and 9th out of 16 with RISP. There is reason for concern as it continues.

I would be more worried about the SP if Livan wasn't as solid as he has been. I don't believe that Perez, Pelfrey, or Maine are going to fall off the map and all of a sudden become horrible pitchers. The lack of hitting with RISP is a concern. You are talking 4 or 5 more wins, so far, if the offense could just get a hit with 2 outs.

You pinch hit castro, have someone bunt Church over to 3rd with 1 out now. Then you pinch hit Castillo to try and get someone to at least hit a fly ball. Simple.

I felt a PH for Castro and Castillo was crucial there.

The bullpen is much better. And the offense has a lot more potential than last season. I like the bench as well. Things will click and this team is much better than last season.

Last night, it was station to station. I would like to see Beltran and Wright get back to stealing more bases.

He wont be a huge improvement, but he will at least swing the bat and not slap at the ball.

He is working himself into being another starter option during the season if needed.
