Mejia to the bullpen? Familia to close?

Reports surfaced around that Daisuke Matsuzaka may have been in line to start Wednesday's game against the Yankees, with Jenrry Mejia switching to the bullpen. Other candidates to replace Mejia in the rotation include prospect Rafael Montero.

"We'll have to see what's going on to happen there," said Collins in regard to his number five spot in the rotation.

In Mejia's mind, staying in the starting rotation will better suit the 24-year old's right arm which as been the subject of many injuries since his call up in 2010.

In recent reports, and quotes from Terry Collins,  it seems Jeurys Familia is close to being the team's next closer. Familia has allowed just one run in his last nine innings of work.

"Three days in a row, pounding the strike zone, throwing his breaking balls for strikes, the confidence is really mounting oh him," Collins told ESPN.

The deeper we get into Spring and eventually Summer, the more shakeups I expect to see in the Mets' bullpen. Management does not want to throw away another season and they have the prospects to keep this interesting well into the summer. Collins has already had four closers have one save this season. The search for consistency continues.
