Ivan Maldonado

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Leads the Zeffs in saves. More whiffs than innings. Whipping @ 1.1-something. NYC native. Keeps it in the ballpark. Wears his socks high and his hat low. Soon to be displaced by Carlos Muniz.

I dunno why they don't give a guy like this a shot.

No surprise that Dickshot would be advocating the Mets call up a player named Ivan.

Yuh. The other guy, Willie Collazo, is a slowball specialist whose been tough on lefties in AAA. I wouldn't mind seeing him get a shot too.

Perhaps Pelfrey takes one for the team and becomes a short man for the last month too. The Mets seem to have some faith in his ability, so I suppose he's got a shot to be that guy.

I'm not asking for Joba Chamberlain Jr. Just someone who can get a few outs here and there while the guys they need take the time off they need or work out whatever ails them.

Pelfrey has had practice at being the short man so he can do it.
