So far the Mets have been unable to land that much needed front-line starter. So like last season when we saw the likes of Dave Williams and Jose Lima, it again looks like Minaya will take the same approach in 2008. Several free-agent pitchers are being considered as fallback options, and the list is not pretty. Jon Lieber has joined Freddy Garcia and Bartolo Colon as the Mets look to add a starting pitcher with an incentive heavy contract. Add Kyle Loshe another below average pitcher to the mix and the scrape heap keeps growing...I don't like any of these options but when it came to free agent pitchers, Livan Hernandez may be Omar's best bet. The question is, Is he really only 32 years old? If the Mets are going to take on an injury risk pitcher may I suggest Jason Jennings.
