Gary Sheffield has signed with the Mets.
so...
Let's assume that Carlos Beltran is safe in CF...
I expect the roster spot to be Jeremey Reed...
I'm trying to guess who gets less playing time here, Ryan Church or Daniel Murphy, and my guess at this point would be Church. The Mets are real high on Murphy and I don't think they want to mess up the karma there...
Assuming Reyes and Murphy stay 1-2 in the lineup, the rest would be (guessing):
3. Beltran
4. Wright
5. Sheffield
6. Delgado
7. Schneider
8. Castillo
Makes Church the #4 outfielder, and really downgrades Tatis and any chance of a Pagan return...
Also, slows down any rush on F-Mart who can sit and hit in Buffalo.
Hmm...

I think Delgado will bat before Sheffield
Nick Evans before Reed. or Marlon?>
Nick Evans will go to Buffalo as soon as the Mets need Livan Hernandez as a 5th starter. He's not affected by the Gary signing.
I would hope the Mets would do the right thing and release Anderson, instead of Reed. They can now afford eating the last year of his contract because they only get a quality player for 400K
