Interesting Reads: Wellemeyer, 2010 opener, Race

Silvestricles of Caught Lookin' gives his opinion on Todd Wellemeyer.

Eli from Mets Underground predicts what the Mets 2010 opener will look like.

Tom Pich of MetsGuide writes a great article about race and how it shouldn't matter in baseball.

I have to agree with you, Tom. The argument that "the Mets only have one black player," who is newly acquired Gary Matthews Jr., is ridiculous. Why should a team sign a player because of his race? A player is signed so he can impact the team in a positive way, not just because they need another black player or another Latino player.
