They're all coming off varieties of injuries and half a season should demonstrate whether or not there are any lingering concerns. Until then, go through the arbitration process. They'll get paid when they need to, whether here or elsewhere. It's not a perfect system but it's the one the owners and the players association agreed to abide. <br /><br />The issue for me is not doing what's necessary to become a front running team such as fortifying the bullpen and addressing the weaknesses in CF and C.

If Sandy gets us a bona fide pen from here on out, fine. If not, shame. In 1985, if the Cards' pen was not impregnable, the Mets easily win the pennant that year. It matters in wins and losses.
