Pelfrey Gets The Ball Today
Today’s Mets' game against the Cardinals will feature Mike Pelfrey as the starter, and he should probably be on the mound for at least 4 innings (IF he's doing well).
Cross your fingers folks, because if Pelfrey has another start like his last one, we could be looking at a desperation move with El Duque and his new delivery moving into the fifth starter slot. I just shutter to think of the aging Hernandez coming out with a new delivery at his age. This just can’t be ending well for him.
If we count the tally, Pelfrey has had two good starts followed by a nightmare. There can’t be much of a leash on him to perform and convince Willie to put him in the fifth spot over El Duque and I fear that one more bad start could push the decision over the ledge.
Can you tell that I would rather see Pelfrey in the opening day rotation?

im with you on that one john. el duque's new delivery scares me drastically
Hey Jon are you there? I just wanted to tell you way not put a cbox on you blog so we could talk.
Delivery does scare me, but with his experience, I am sure he knows what he is doing. I would rather have Pelfrey 5th, but Hernandez has proven he still can pitch in the league with the junk that he throws. Only problem is he gets hurt a lot obviously. But if we had him until then, I wouldn't mind. His era is still pretty good.
