OR Mejia becomes a dynamite short man, bridging the gap between a six-inning starting staff and Fodriguez, and the Mets put together a run early, then get Reyes back for a boost, then Beltran back for another boost, make some noise in the division with a bit of a lead, then trade the entire farm system for a washed-up bat in July, and finish three games out of the playoff picture. (Wait. I liked the way I started that, then I fell off at the end.) Seriously, though, maybe he's part of the answer? Why wait, if you can try to win some games now?
