The terrific two-some K Rod and J J Putz.

In a blog by Jayson Stark there is high praise for the moves the Omar Minaya and the Mets pulled off during the winter meetings that concluded today with the Rule 5 draft this afternoon.

In his notes he mentions that there is not a better tandem of 8th and 9th innings guys out there today. He also has some stats which as a Met fan we have seen before regarding how many loses the Mets accumulated in the late innings of games when the bullpen blew up in 2008.

Omar and Mets deserve a lot of credit. To here even Mike on WFAN sound a little jealous that his precious Yankees don’t have a 1-2 punch in the bullpen like the Mets. He kept mentioning that the Yankees should bring in some arms so the Yankees can put Joba Chamberlain in the bullpen. It is nice to here the Yankee fan for once praise the Mets. That should tell you how good a job Omar has done so far.
