E-Mail Bag: How Good Will Pedro Be?

What do you think we can expect from Pedro when he comes back to the rotation?

Well James, whit Pedro getting ready to throw off the mound on Monday and his recent comments on how well he’s throwing the ball so far:

“I think I’m throwing the ball better than Roger is right now in the Minors”.

Personally I’m hoping for a Pedro Circa 2004, but I’d settle for a Pedro circa 2005. He will be the same old Pedro, when he comes back, and will be hitting his mid season stride as the Mets (hopefully) enter the playoffs.

In other words, Pedro is going to come back, in my opinion, with a strict pitch count in his first few starts. As the season marches on, they sky is the limit.
