The Mets have lost Billy Wagner for the season, possibly even a good portion of 2009, which spells very bad news for them.  He’s been the anchor of that bullpen ever since he signed with the Mets and was a large part of their 2006 NLCS run.  He’s gone down thanks to a possible torn elbow ligament which not only ends his 2008 season, but like I said earlier, could cost him part of or all of 2009.  I have little faith in the Mets making a run to the World Series now…their bullpen seems a little shaky.  If I were a fan, I wouldn’t have much faith in Luis Ayala or Duaner Sanchez to close out crucial playoff games.
