An Idea

Since the Mets won't be using a 5th starter until Mid-April, and El Duque is not 100%, and is just making his 2nd start this spring today. The Mets should DL El Duque and use Pelfrey as the #4 starter. Then after April 15th Take El Duque off the DL, and then go with the 5 man rotation. This way you get Pelfrey work, and you let El Duque build up strength for the rest of the season...
