I'd bet that they don't pin 2 runs on Nolasco.
Same here.

On the flip side, I imagine that if Willie were still the manager he'd say everything was fine and start Niese. As much as I think the guy is overrated, you gotta give Manuel credit for acknowledging desperation.

Privately, the Mets believe they scored enough runs last season (799, tied for second in the NL with the Phillies). Unless they can pull off an unlikely trade of Luis Castillo and add free agent Orlando Hudson to play second base, the likely move is to add a backup infielder such as Alex Cora.
799 runs is enough. Don't score a run more.
