Less than a week to go in camp. Any position battles still going on at this point?

Mets have all but named Jon Niese as the 5th starter, so that makes Fernando Nieve a lock for the bullpen as are Pedro Feliciano and obviously K-Rod. Hisanori Takahashi seems to have made the team as the second lefty. I assumed Ryota Igarashi was a lock because of his 2-year Major League deal, but he's looked horrible so far and I'm assuming he could be optioned if they wanted. Seems like a wide-open battle for 3 spots.

Also trying to figure out the last bench spot, it'll either be Mike Jacobs, Chris Carter, or Frank Catalanotto. I think Jacobs has the inside track even though the other two guys are more versatile.
