The Mets Are Back


The Mets have made their first bright decision since 1986. Oliver Perez, who was somehow in competition for a starting role, has been demoted to the bullpen. During spring training, he will compete for the lefty-specialist role.

With Perez banished from the rotation, the Mets now have a realistic shot at claiming fourth place in the NL East. The Yankees are in need of a starter or four so Brian Cashman should give the Mets a shout if that lefty-specialist gig doesn't work out for Oliver.
