  Throw another fifth starter on the pile

The Mets have come to terms with Scott Erickson, who missed two of the last three seasons following elbow and shoulder surgeries. In addition to that, Erickson hasn't put up an ERA anywhere near league average since 1999. But with Erickson, Shawn Sedlacek, Grant Roberts, Tyler Yates, Jeremy Griffiths and Aaron Heilman (the official fifth starter of Betty's No Good Clothes Shop And Pancake House) all on board for Spring Training, the chances have to be pretty slim that the Mets won't at least stumble onto an adequate fifth starter by opening day, don't they? Give me (at least) six pitchers of various ages and abilities, Rick Peterson and the good ol' law of averages, and I've got to feel okay about this particular roster spot.
