Will Cory Mazzoni Make the Mets Bullpen?

The Mets have been trying to stockpile their bullpen with young arms. One of those young arms is Cory Mazzoni, a 24 year old right hander. Last season for Binghmton, he posted a 5-3 record with a 4.36 ERA and had 74 strikeouts in 64 innings. His season was cut short after he injured his knee, which resulted in surgery to repair a torn meniscus. Mazzoni is considered a 3 pitch pitcher. He has a plus fastball, good slider, and outstanding splitter. He will definitely be considered in spring training to make the Opening Day roster along with other young pitchers such as Jeff Walters. It'd be great for the Mets if Mazzoni can make the team. They need to add more depth to their pen, primarily with young and powerful pitchers.
