Collins vs Alderson who has final word on roster

In this corner the new manager of the Mets Terry Collins. In the opposite corner the New GM of the Mets Sandy Alderson.  The prize..the winner of the 2nd base challenge.

Collins has said that he thinks he has final word especially when it comes to 2nd base. Alderson as quoted by the NY Post "At some point, who's on the team or not on the team is probably my decision, with strong input from Terry and the coaches and scouts who watch us on a daily basis,"

So Alderson will pick a 2nd basemen from input from Collins. So if Brad Emaus makes the team you know Riccardi has more input then Collins.

I think that it would be a great idea if Alderson and Collins can agree on who they should have on team.  Nothing like starting the year and already having disagreements on the roster.

Reports in the past say that the Mets have no problem jettisoning players like Castillo and Perez regardless of salary. I do not see Castillo besides Alderson mentioning the fact that he likes his pitch selection as a player the Mets really need . 

This could be the battle right down to opening day with Luis Castillo/Brad Emaus and Luis Hernandez as the main ingredient.
