Pedro Feliciano wants to be the setup man for the Mets heading into the 2010 season.

"I just want to be the setup man," Feliciano said. "I don't want to be the lefty specialist. ... I want to be the setup man. I want to be the eighth-inning guy, and I want to prove to the organization that I can pitch to righties like I pitch to lefties."

Over the last four seasons, Feliciano has a 3.04 ERA in an average of 79 games per year.

"I see [J.J.] Putz is gone, and nobody's set up as the setup man," Feliciano said. "I want to get that position. I want to win it. I'm working with the righties like I'm doing with the lefties. And I just want to leave Spring Training as the setup man."
