Look for the tigers to be looking at most of the same players..

Ya think!...........Since Billy "blown save" wagner is finished.

So let me get this straight - Kerry Wood goes from being one of the biggest jokes in baseball to a 'top free agent closer'? It's funny how two seasons in a different role changes people's views on a guy...

Seriously, this is just one of the many holes the Mets have to shore up this offseason. I would be concerned with all of their pitching, not just the bullpen. That starting rotation didn't look so great after Santana this season. I doubt NY can get it all done this offseason, but many pieces could be put into place to help close the deal.

YEAH, Since Wagner is DONE!! I am so glad we got rid of him and his attitude in PHILLY and got a real closer like Lidge!

What? I thought Santana was enough to win it all? Oh well...

I'd rather have Oil Can Boyd than Captain Back Spasm

Closers, middle relievers...stock up mets...

Hmmm, I'd say Pelfrey looked dominant from June on, Perez turned it around after Rick "Jellybeanhead" Peterson got fired and Maine was hurt, but is a viable 3rd starter. The Mets focus has to be Bullpen, bullpen, bullpen then they should address the starting pitching.
They should sign two closer quality guys and dump everyone from last year except stokes.

rodriguez is gonna slaughter the teams that showed interest but didnt pony up

Eh, not exactly. September sure didn't look dominating...

But I definitely agree June though August...
