El Duque To Looks to be in Front


NY Post:
"The Mets expect to make Orlando Hernandez their No. 5 starter if El Duque shows he is healthy Friday in his final Grapefruit League start, a team source said today.

Hernandez has the upper hand over Mike Pelfrey, Jorge Sosa, Nelson Figueroa and any potential free-agent additions if he holds up well in his start in Fort Lauderdale against the Orioles, the source said."

The odds are tomorrow we will get our answer when both pitchers will be facing the O's and are scheduled to throw 3-4 innings each. Pelfrey said he thinks he won't win the job and that is not how I want him to be mentally. He needs to get toughen up and believe in himself a little more.
