It’s been an exciting week for the Mets and their fans as we’ve watched the front office make the moves we’ve been begging for. The team has responded by chasing down the Nationals in the N.L. East. The beleaguered lineup has improved thanks to trades, improved health and revived lumber. The starting rotation remains the engine that makes the team go, with the only remaining question whether or not to go with a six-man rotation to save the young arms for October.
Even after all that has happened in Flushing the last week, the Mets were not done, turning their attention to a bullpen that was starting to show some wear and tear.
