With the Met bullpen in serious disarray, John Maine may be on his way to save the day. A couple of issues still need to be worked out (will pitching this year have a permanent effect on Maine's arm? - if so FORGET the idea! - and, the Mets need to determine whether Maine can be consistently effective). Maine may be able to pitch hard with his injury; however, the next day he is in serious pain. As a reliever, a pitcher naturally needs to be able to throw almost every day. This may be a problem and would nix the plan.
The Mets will soon need to assess who will be in the pen if the team makes the playoffs and needs to cut the roster back down to 25. Just another thing to look for in the upcoming 11 games.
