Probably means 4th place; but that doesn't matter.   E&K Citizen Username: Ashmilby Post Number: 70 Registered: 9-2002 Posted on Monday, March 1, 2004 - 9:27 am:        I think the N.L. East will be a tightly contested race with 10 games separating the best from the 4th place team. Montreal is doomed to come in last this year. I'd grudgingly give Philly the top spot followed by Atlanta and the Mets (don't laugh). Florida with pitching should do well but with no Pudge or Derrek Lee, they'll suck at the plate. Of course, they have Benitez and I'll look forward to watching him blow saves in September.   wharfrat Citizen Username: Wharfrat Post Number: 995 Registered: 6-2001 Posted on Monday, March 1, 2004 - 11:01 am:        Mets middle relief and closers are mediocre at best. If aged starting pitching falters early, Mets will be a 70 win team. Am I the only one who thinks the Mets should not trade pitching prospects for Soriano?   Marc Citizen Username: Bautisma Post Number: 122 Registered: 9-2003 Posted on Monday, March 1, 2004 - 11:17 am:        I would trade the pitching prospects for Soriano. Kazmir is still two years away from coming up, and pitchers with their arm problems are hard to predict how good they will be. Pulsipher, Ishringhausen, and Wilson, are good examples of this.
