The 'Ropolitans

Sports Illustrated has a photo montage of the "All-Slump Team" through April 30. Robinson Cano is on the list, along with Ryan Howard, Ryan Zimmerman and many other players.

Two Mets on the list: Carlos Beltran and Carlos Delgado.

Here's Beltran's blurb:

Carlos Beltran | Mets, OF
Coming off a solid campaign in which he hit 33 home runs, drove in 112 runs and stole 23 bases, Beltran has just two home runs this season and is hitting .211 with only two swipes.

Alright, understandable. The one about Delgado is a little more curious:

Carlos Delgado | Mets, bench
After Carlos Delgado dropped from 38 to 24 home runs over the past two seasons, Mets fans were hoping he would rebound by having a solid year. However, his start to the season has been troubling, given his paltry .198 batting average and 20 K's in the first 26 games of the season.

Bench? Is this a foul up, or a look into the future? Only time will tell.
