John Maine, Orlando Hernandez, and Mike Pelfrey are all candidates to be removed from the rotation when the Mets eventually go to five starters.
The currenty rotation has Tom Glavine pitching on Tuesday night, followed by John Maine on Wednesday and Pedro Martinez on Friday in Atlanta.
Pelfrey had struggled with his command in previous starts, and although he walked just one batter today, he did hit two Astros and was rather inefficient with his pitch count.

 Baseball Musings: Break Up the Cardinals
Whereas in 2003 the Bird 'pen was one of the worst in all of baseball, allowing something like 55 runs more bthan an AVERAGE bullpen, the 2004 unit is hugely improved, and is probably one of the top 4 or 5 in the NL.
On a more subjective note, this year’s bullpen doesn’t have any of the gasoline-on-the-fire guys that the ’03 pen did—Yan, Fassero, Borbon, etc., the kind of guys that made me cringe in fear behind the sofa when I saw them trot in to the mound.
In fact, if you were to look for reasons the Cardinals might fade in the second half, I don’t think the pitching would be the likely culprit.

Mike Lincoln: He’s been all over the place ERA wise, but the only real peripheral change (besides hits/9, and if you’re a DIPS-er you don’t care about that) in the past three years is a rising strikeout rate.
