I remain optimistic. The move they made at the deadline was a good one. Sucked for Storen but overall, the pen got better. Storen will be gone at year's end so we need to get use to that. They didn't need to do much more than they did because they, in sense, brought in 4 top level talents with the return of Zimmerman, Werth, Rendon and Span. No need to do more than that. These guys should be a step up above those who were filling their shoes. It just has to be understood that timing and vision/eye don't return right away. These guys will need a little time to get back to speed. At that point, they should be a pretty strong offense.
If we can get the pitching staff to pitch at their averages - they should be good as well.
Things are definately interesting and the Mets had a great trade deadline move. Coupled with their arms, they are going to be tough so we can let them hang around too long. This will certainly make for some fun games down the stretch.
