A few weeks ago, I would have agreed with you.  Now, I'm not so sure.

1B: Garciaparra vs. Delgado:  Sure Delgado wins... but Garciaparra is not chopped liver

2B: Jeff Kent vs. Kaz Matsui:  the disparity between Kent and Matsui is a bit high

SS: Rafael Furcal vs. Reyes:  only category that Reyes trumps Furcal is in SBs... and Furcal is no slouch in that dept.  Dodgers even win this category defensively.

3B: Bill Mueller vs. David Wright: Wright by a landslide, but probably balances out the disparity between Kent and Matsui.

If the Mets can improve at 2B, I would agree with you.  Absent this, the infields are a wash, in my opinion.
