The Wind-Up...

Spring training is in full (ahem) swing. Position players have reported, pitchers and catchers have been working for a week, and it's time to start figuring out who will stay and who will go. Obviously, the big question mark for the Mets is the mound, where 23 members of the 40-man spring training roster hope to play (and that's not counting the additional 10 NRIs hanging around Port St. Lucie). With exactly seven days until the first exhibition -- an NLCS rematch against the Cardinals at Tradition Field -- there's not much time left to cut the pitching roster down to a manageable size. It's going to be very, very interesting to see how the next week plays out, that's for sure.
