Mets getting in Mets' way - again

As the Mets talked all winter about how great they were going to be and all the talk surrounded their young pitching, that little blue and orange voice in the back of my head was screaming, "the Mets will somehow find a way to screw this thing up."

And on Friday night, when Terry Collins started talking about a six-man rotation, that little voice was yelling "told ya."

OK, the Mets haven't implemented the six-man rotation yet, but it's clear that's where the Mets are heading because they A: can't move Niese or Gee and B: don't know what to do with Niese or Gee, so they do this six-man rotation, or this idea of Gee piggybacking a starter to cut down on the workload.
