This sucks!!!! Now we're in the same position as we were last year--desperate for a #5 starter. Just imagine when Zambrano goes down with injury after his first or second start, we'll need two pitchers. If all the so-called experts are right about Pedro, then we will need 3 starters. How's this sound: Glavine Benson Seo Ginter Yates That's fantasy to nightmare pretty darn quick. |

neither zammy nor pedro will go down with injury i say give yates another shot, if he f*cks up we always have seo or ginter who have shown flashes of brilliance. |

The difference between Trax's injury and the one Zammy will have is that Trax will recover from it before the end of the season. Damn, this is bad news. Only positive is maybe Justin will realize that Trax's true value now. |

I do think it's a bit stupid to guarantee an injury for someone. |

This isn't "anyone" is it? This a guy with a violent pitching motion, coming off an injury plagued season, having to prove that he is something more than he is just to justify something that wasn't in his control. Either his arm will blow, or he'll be nothing more than a 4th, 5th starter. No to Petit. Not yet. Why ruin the kid's confidence? |

if he can pitch let him pitch enough of that going through all three levels one year at a time, you do your best learning at the highest level against the best. Obviously we just shouldnt give him the job but he should definatly be in the mix to try to get it. |

I don't believe bringing top prospects in as stopgaps. Petit would just be a stopgap. When Trax is ready he'd go back down thereby losing his confidence. When a top prospect comes up he should be fully tested at the minor league level. Let the spot go to the best spring training starter. |

Zammy has an awful motion. He pitched all of 3 games for us last year plus 22 for Tampa. Still 8 less than Glavine who was far from healthy last year. I'd say that qualifies as injury prone. |

When Gooden came up the only triple A experience he had was when he was brought up from double A at the end of the year for the International League playoffs. Next year he was the Mets best pitcher. I saw Kazmir pitch last year and I don’t know where this sh*t came from that he has a violent motion. Zambrano’s problem is that he throws too many damn pitches because he goes to deep counts with everybody. If he was more efficient with his pitch count he wouldn’t have so many problems. |

i hate trachsel more than anything in the world but this news really sucks, he's way better than seo, heilman or ginter, the mets are f*cked, either make a trade or you know what let the kid petit start, yes i know it's a crazy idea but it just might work!!! |

no need to trade to get crap just start seo, ginter and yates, each go on hot streaks, when cold just take one of them out and replace him with the other. |

ginter was almost perfect his first month and a half, seo has been shown to put up a few zeros. I do not want to trade someone valuable just to get a 5 starter who is probably garbage n the first place (the reason he is on the block this early). |

Then let's package our trashbag of 5th starters for someone better. Maybe throw in a lower level prospect. |

No good pitcher. The point isn't to get a good pitcher. The point is to get a 5th starter that isn't an automatic L. |
