Deepest Division

[77smbg9177]

i'm not saying he is our key not even close me just making an argument for the Mets bullpen

[all4phillysportsfan]

The Mets bullpen is above the Phillies, but it's still not that good.

[77smbg9177]

Glavine will do probaly same as last year
Orlando Hernandez wont be able to tell 100% until we see him in spring training to see if he is 100%
Jon Maine lights out in the playoffs shows he woint fold under pressure
Pedro will be back half way through at 100%
Mike Pelfrey is the number 1 prospect in most baseball magizene if he is what he is suppose to be like he will do excellent same with Phil Humber

Mota who was lights out in 18 games for the Mets with a 1.oo as a met
Schoenewise who like Mota was lights out in the NL with a .67
Padilla who dint pitch last year but had an era of 1.47 the year before and is healthy

And this has to do with the discussion about how deep divisions in baseball are how?

Great, you can post about the Mets relief staff. Now follow up why Atlanta is better than those AL central teams and we might have something worthy of a discussion... or perhaps prove that the Marlins only trying to get worse ultimately unsurps the Royals who are trying to get better?

And that's off topic. Weren't you saying this is supposed to be about the deepest division in baseball?

[77smbg9177]

That were you wroung Marlins not trying to get wrose they are trying to be as good as they can jsut for as cheap as they can that why they out looking for a trade for a solid closer

this is why i had to correct that

[bedir than average]

And you have yet to do that. You have not challenged my statement at all.

Addressing a question concerning the rotation by stating the bullpen doesn't help your cause, and saying that Pedro will be 100% when he returns is laughable. No one is 100% when they return from injury. 40+ Year old Glavine we have little reason to believe he will be the same as last year, old timers don't do that.

Orlando is old AND injured, that doesn't help the staff. Jon Maine has yet to perform over a full season. Their is little reason to beleive that he will be more than an average starter.

Mike Pelfrey has shown up in every one's top ten prospects list. You know who the #1 pitching prospect two straight years was quite recently? Felix Hernandez. Tell me why Pelfrey will perform better in his first full season than Felix.

i never siad Pelfrey would i said if he does what he is suppose to do then that would be great to our rotation and Pefro made it Clear he doesn't care on anyone else he is not coming back or even picking up a baseball until he is 100% and if that can't happen then he wont return

[77smbg9177]

ok we got who people think the strongest all around divison is now what about who do u think is the weakest divison this year

[bedir than average]

The weakest without a doubt is the AL worst. I say this as a fan of the Mariners. From 1998-2003 this division was one of the best in the game, but is so mediocre now that I could see a 85 win team winning it.

Anaheim didn't address their biggest need (a hitter to compliment Vlad), Texas still has pitching needs and got worse offensively, Oakland lost a top15 CY candidate and an MVP candidate and Seattle has the most mediocre pitching staff to enter a season in ages.

does anyone want to change there mind on the weakest and strongest divison now that we are a week into spring training??
