Random thoughts and questions

I have a lot of thoughts running through my head right now, so I'll just leave them here for you to pick apart, answer or ponder.
  • Is Marlon Anderson obselete? With enough younger guys on the bench, is there any reason to carry him on the team?
  • Is John Maine actually healthy?
  • Who is going to make the bullpen?
  • Is Daniel Murphy really all that? Have I been sipping the kool aid?
  • Who will be the first major injury? Who will fill in for that injury?
  • Why is the bullpen called the bullpen?
  • How will Citi Field play?
  • Is the Mets rotation set up correctly (Santana, Pelfrey, Perez, Maine, Hernandez(?))?
  • Where do I stand between new age stats and the tried and true ones?
  • Will Nick Evans get a shot with the Mets this year?
  • Who will be the first young arm to impact the team in '09?
  • Is Jerry Manuel the coach this team needs, or is he still basking in the afterglow of Willie Randolph's firing?
  • Will Luis Castillo get run out of town? Is Alex Cora a competent backup?
  • Will Carlos Delgado play like he's gunning for another contract?
Have at it.
