Mets Zephyrs season over due to Gustav: Mets ponder call September call ups

With hurricane Gustav churning in the Gulf the Mets Triple AAA affiliate the New Orleans Zephyrs have called off there last 3 games of the season. They finished 66-75.

Now the Mets brass needs to make some calls regarding who they will call up to Milwaukee to meet the team tomorrow.

With the bullpen hurting with the likes of Scott Schoneweis having some muscle tightness and the rest of the bullpen not getting the job done except for maybe Brian Stokes and Ayala who has had 1 good game then a bad game, The Mets I'm sure will be adding to the bullpen

The most likely candidates are Ricardo Ricon who was with the Mexican league, Jon Niese, and maybe Bobby Parnell a long with Carlos Muniz. You also will see Al Reyes who has been with the Binghamton Mets since they signed him earlier this month

The question is are they guys in position to be more then just a body in the bullpen? Will they be able to deliver in the clutch? Ricon and Reyes have done it before.

Can you believe now we will have 3 Reyes's on the team once Argenis Reyes makes it back tomorrow?
