Earlier this spring I took a look at the Mets from a fantasy perspective. I gave my predictions and analysis of each player. I figured since my friends consisting of 12 guys ( 6 Met fans, 5 Yankee fans and 1 Red Sox fan) concluded our draft in a NY biased draft, I would announce where Mets went for your reference. This should give you an idea of where these guys are going in a NY style fantasy draft.
Round 2, Pick 15-David Wright, 3B
Round 3, Pick 34- Johan Santana-SP
Round 4, Pick 41-Jose Reyes-SS
Round 6, Pick 71- Jason Bay-OF
Round 10, Pick 117-Carlos Beltran-OF
Round 11, Pick 122- Francisco Rodriguez-CP
Round 15, Pick 176-Jeff Francoeur-OF
The joke of the day was if Ollie Perez was going to be Mr. Irrelevant but it never materialized. Obviously, injuries and a losing culture scared many away from the likes of Ollie, Maine and Pelf. I am sure people will keep on eye on the Mets roster as there could be some free agent picks up if any of the youngsters get the call to Flushing.


Mike Pelfrey-SP: As of today, the Mets are looking at Pelf as the number two starter, which is exactly what they did last year. Even though Mike was the number two, he did not pitch that way, but then again did anyone on this team? Mike has been hyped big time for awhile now and the Mets thought they finally gotten Mike to achieve his lofty expectations in the summer of 2008, when he was unbeatable. With Mike being a dominating pitcher it was expected he would dominate in 2009 but three words can explain his 09 season, Jody Gerut and the Yips. Mike was extremely inconsistent and quite frankly pretty crazy during the season. Pelf ended the season with a 10 and 12 record and a 5.02 ERA. If you are thinking about taking Pelf, then you are hoping he gets back to that 08 season where we finished with 13 W’s and a 3.78 ERA. It is also important to remember even though a big guy, Pelf rarely records big K totals. Pelf is ranked 344 by Yahoo Sports, which means he is ranked as the 89th best SP, he is also owned by 6% of owners.
