Wheeler is on a 120 inning limit this year, and Syndergaard has a blister. Harvey is a huge question mark of course. Yeah if 3-4 of those turn out good they're fine- but it's just as likely with their history that 4 of the 5 could turn up bad for them.

Fair assessment. So if they tank this year who runs the East? Nationals then Braves?

Agree with stever - it's the Nats' division to lose. It won't take the Mets tanking, though. They're counting on improving with basically the same team, one year older. How many of those guys can you expect to play better, get injured less? It kind of looks like long odds to bet that guys who have been trending down will turn it back up, or that guys will have significant jumps in performance, all the while staying healthy when there are several guys late (or beyond) their prime playing years.

you agree with him, and i'm agreeing with you. There's too much agreement here. We need some contentious topics
