New York Mets 2012 Banter

I agree about Dickey, and wondered about the decision to juggle the pitching line against my Yanks. OK, I know the excuse was to give Santana a few extra days's rest after his no-no. But the Yankees are historically bad against junk-ballers, and I felt Dickey was a much greater challenge for them than Johan.

Guess we might find out for sure this weekend, with him pencilled in to oppose C.C.

Thing about Dickey - I wouldn't change the rotation at all around him. He needs to pitch basically every 6th day.

He really isn't a junk baller. I wish love when we throw him in the opener of a series, basically seems to screw a lineup up for days.
