Two starters-turned-relievers bullish on the Mets’ bullpen

PORT ST. LUCIE — The Yankees’ bullpen is getting all the attention, deservedly so, but relievers Robert Gsellman and Seth Lugo both say you shouldn’t sleep on the Mets’ new pen.

“I think we are going to be great,’’ Gsellman said Saturday at First Data Field of Brodie Van Wagenen’s rebuilt bullpen. “If we push each other, the sky is the limit for us.’’

Gsellman and Lugo will have prominent roles, but now they have plenty of help with the addition of closer Edwin Diaz (91 saves the past two seasons), Jeurys Familia and Justin Wilson.
