Young and Mejia to Pitch Lucy This Week

-This is real good news.

-Adam Rubin has reported that SP Chris Young will pitch 'around 75 pitches' in a game for St. Lucie... tomorrow!

-In addition, SP Jenrry Mejia will start on Thursday.

This may change everything in a couple of weeks.

No one is talking about where each of them will eventually start the season, after the rehab period, but we all know that the Mets need help, both in the pen and in the SP5 slot.

The conservative approach would be to keep Young in Bufallo and let Mejia shed the cobwebs in Binghamton, but we don't even know whether the Mets have plans to put them back in rotation slots, or let them get their legs in 2012 in a pen somewhere.

Me? I just want them to come out of rehab intact.

However, a man can dream, right?

2012:  Santana, Niese, Dickey, Young, Mejia

2013:  Santana, Harvey, Niese, Familia, Mejia 

2014:  Harvey, Wheeler, Niese, Mejia, Familia
