(by Brett Kahn)On WFAN this morning, Joe Benigno and Evan Roberts discussed the idea of Aaron Heilman joining the starting rotation.
Since reliever Matt Wise is on his way back to the bullpen, there needs to be an open roster spot for him. If the Mets send Heilman to the minors for a little while to work on his pitches so he can start, Wise can return to the Mets bullpen in place of Heilman.
Since the Mets don't know how effective Pedro Martinez will ever be again or when Orlando Hernandez will return, having Heilman as an ace up the sleeve might help solidify the starting rotation.
