Manager: Mike Matheny (sixth season)
Who's new? OF Dexter Fowler, C Eric Fryer, LH Brett Cecil
Who's gone? 1B Brandon Moss, OF Matt Holliday, OF Jeremy Hazelbaker, RHP Jaime Garcia, RHP Seth Maness, RHP Jerome Williams
Projected lineup: CF Dexter Fowler (.276, 13 HR, 48 RBI, 13 SB with Cubs), SS Aledmys Diaz (.300, 17, 65), 1B Matt Carpenter (.271, 21, 68), RF Stephen Piscotty (.273, 22, 85), C Yadier Molina (.307, 8, 58), 3B Jedd Gyorko (.243, 30, 59), 2B Kolten Wong (.240, 5, 23), LF Randal Grichuk (.240, 24, 68)
Rotation: RH Carlos Martinez (16-9, 3.04 ERA), RH Adam Wainwright (13-9, 4.62), RH Mike Leake (9-12, 4.69), RH Michael Wacha (7-7, 5.09), RH Lance Lynn (did not pitch - Tommy John surgery)
Key relievers: RH Seung-hwan Oh (6-3, 1.92 ERA 19/23 SV), LH Kevin Siegrist (6-3, 2.77), RH Trevor Rosenthal (2-4, 4.46, 14/18 SV), LH Brett Cecil (1-7, 3.93 with Blue Jays), RH Jonathan Broxton (4-2, 4.30), RH Matt Bowman (2-5, 3.46), RH Miguel Socolovich (1-0, 2.00)
Hot spots: Rotation. The back end looked like a big leap of faith when spring training began. Wainwright and Wacha are coming off their worst seasons. Another 2013 World Series mainstay, Lynn, didn't pitch last season as he recovered from Tommy John surgery. Then, on the first day of camp, 22-year-old right-hander Alex Reyes learned he needed Tommy John himself. That leaves a lot of question marks after ace Martinez ' more than any Cardinals staff has faced in years.
Outlook: This 40-man roster hints at a team in transition. Venerable 34-year-old catcher Molina is still St. Louis' biggest star. Reyes' injury hurts the youth movement, but the Cardinals are still stacked with talented 20-something sluggers ' Piscotty, Diaz, Gyorko and Grichuk ' who could emerge as household names. Adding Fowler's speed and patience should complement an already deep lineup. The pitching staff is a different matter. Barring a big resurgence from Wainwright, Lynn and Wacha (or a big trade) it's hard to see the Cardinals contending for more than a wild card spot in the Cubs' shadow. | | NY METS: 2016: 87-75, second place
Manager: Terry Collins (seventh season)
Who's new? No one of note
Who's gone? 1B James Loney, IF/OF Kelly Johnson, OF Alejandro De Aza, RHP Bartolo Colon, LHP Jonathon Niese
Projected lineup: CF Curtis Granderson (.237, 30 HR, 59 RBI), 3B David Wright (.226, 7, 14 in 37 games), LF Yoenis Cespedes (.280, 31, 86), RF Jay Bruce (.250, 33, 99 with Reds and Mets), 2B Neil Walker (.282, 23, 55), SS Asdrubal Cabrera (.280, 23, 62), 1B Lucas Duda (.229, 7, 23 in 47 games), C Travis d'Arnaud (.247, 4, 15)
Rotation: RH Noah Syndergaard (14-9, 2.60 ERA), RH Jacob deGrom (7-8, 3.04), RH Matt Harvey (4-10, 4.86), LH Steven Matz (9-8, 3.40), RH Zack Wheeler or RH Robert Gsellman (4-2, 2.42) or RH Seth Lugo (5-2, 2.67)
Key relievers: RH Jeurys Familia (3-4, 2.55, 51/56 SV), RH Addison Reed (4-2, 1.97), RH Hansel Robles (6-4, 3.48), LH Jerry Blevins (4-2, 2.79), RH Fernando Salas (3-7, 3.91)
Hot spots: First base and third base. Duda missed 115 games last season because of a stress fracture in his lower back. When healthy, the veteran first baseman slugged a career-low .714. Former first-round draft pick Dominic Smith, 21, could be in position to battle for the starting spot soon. He'll likely begin the season at Triple-A. Franchise third baseman Wright doesn't have a hot prospect pushing him out the door, but how much game does he have left? The perennial All-Star only began throwing a baseball in February after an eight-month recovery from neck surgery. Wright had a degenerative back and has only played 75 games the last two years. Getting a full season from him at age 34 would be a shock.
Outlook: The Mets' championship window opened with a surprise World Series run in 2015, and their front office seems convinced it's still open. The club invested four years and $110 million to keep Yoenis Cespedes in the outfield. The Mets also exercised club options on Jay Bruce and Jose Reyes, and brought Neil Walker back on a qualifying offer. The result? Almost everyone returns from a club that lost a wild-card game to the Giants last October. The franchise is oozing young pitching ' Syndergaard might be the best right-hander on the planet ' but another World Series appearance might be too much to expect from a team that ranked 25th in runs per game last season. |
| | Mets vie for split with Cardinals
NEW YORK -- On Wednesday afternoon, St. Louis manager Mike Matheny said he hoped his team was ready to return to playing Cardinals-style baseball. A few hours later, a 7-3 victory by the Mets over the Cardinals left New York manager Terry Collins speaking optimistically about the possibility of his squad mounting a long-overdue run. The truth is both teams are running out of time entering the finale of a four-game series on Thursday at Citi Field. The Mets' Seth Lugo (4-2, 4.50 ERA) is scheduled to oppose the Cardinals' Lance Lynn (8-6, 3.40) in a matinee matchup of right-handers. The Mets will be going for a split of the series after ace right-hander Jacob deGrom earned his seventh straight win by allowing one run over 6 2/3 innings Wednesday. Afterward, Collins said he hoped deGrom's performance could spark the Mets (42-50), who are 11 games behind the Arizona Diamondbacks in the race for the National League's second wild card and 14 games behind the first-place Washington Nationals in the NL East. "We don't know when the streak's going to hit, when we're going to get going," Collins said. "Maybe it starts tonight. We got some big hits, we got a well-pitched game. Maybe we'll break out (Thursday) and the next five days we pitch very good." The Cardinals (46-48) failed in a bid to move to .500 for the first time since June 2. St. Louis is 4 1/2 games behind the first-place Milwaukee Brewers in the NL Central and eight games behind the Diamondbacks. "Kind of been our aim, not necessarily to get to .500 (but) get to what looks like Cardinals baseball," Matheny said Wednesday afternoon. "And there's a level of expectations that should go along with that." The Cardinals will need a better performance out of Lynn and their defense than they got Wednesday, when Mike Leake gave up seven runs -- four earned -- while lasting just two innings. It was the third-shortest of his 221 major league starts. Leake likely would have gotten out of a four-run second inning unscathed if third baseman Jedd Gyorko had not thrown the ball away on a potential inning-ending double play. Lynn enters Thursday on a 13 1/3-inning scoreless streak. He won his second straight start last Saturday after scattering eight hits over 6 1/3 innings in the Cardinals' 4-0 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates. In his previous outing, he tossed seven scoreless innings against the Mets in a 6-0 win at Busch Stadium on July 9. Lugo appeared in relief that day, allowing one run in three innings. Lugo earned a victory Saturday, when he gave up three runs over 6 2/3 innings as the Mets beat the Colorado Rockies 9-3. At the plate, Lugo helped his own cause by hitting his first career homer, a solo shot in the third inning. Lynn is 3-3 with a 2.45 ERA in eight career appearances (six starts) against the Mets. Lugo is 1-0 with a 1.13 ERA in two career appearances (one start) against the Cardinals. |
