Yes, we are only a swell two games in to the young 2009 campaign, but despite the Mets gaining wins in both games, especially how they got the W's, I do have one concern.  That concern lies in the bullpen.

Now I know the majority of the Mets fanbase is thinking and saying, "We got Putz, Green, Frankie, no more Heil-Weis, etc. So why the concern for the 'pen?"  Well, friends, I have one reason: Pedro Feliciano.  So despite the acquisitions to and subtractions from our relief corps, we still have one hold-over from last-year's atrocity (we haven't seen much from Stokes yet, so for now I won't pass any judgement on him).  I worried in the off season that his presence could mean trouble for this year's squadron of relief pitchers and about his performance after being partially a guilty party.  My worries were realized during Wednesday night's intense victory.  After getting Dickerson swinging at air, he allowed Votto and Phillips to reach base safely before Bruce brought the former in home. It could've been worse had Phillips not been gunned out at second. Still, he made things uneasy for Mets Nation when walking Encarnacion before being pulled.

My overall thought is this: Feliciano scares the holy hell out of me!  If his performance tonight is any indication, we could be in for a long season with him on the mound every other game.  Yes, I am well aware that it's too early in the season for this.  I just have a bad vibe about number 25.
