Message: [QUOTE="sutomcat, post: 4643901, member: 27"] Was expecting Cookie to go on the IL list. Hope he can return in a month or so and come back as an effective starter. Brigham is a reliever. Believe Lucchesi or Butto will replace Cookie in the rotation. In theory, this would only be for a starter or two, before Verlander returns to the rotation. if Lucchesi gets a start and Verlander does return, they will be the 8th and 9th starting pitchers for the Mets this season. And we still have a week and a half to go to get to May. After the 5-0 shutout by Keyshawn, it is becoming apparent this team is vulnerable to lefties. Man, we really could use JD Davis right now. He is hitting.347 for the Giants with 4 HRs and 14 RBI. And we get to face him next series. Ugh. [/QUOTE]
