My parents live in Jupiter. That's a nice ballpark -- and an easy trip for the Mets, about 40 minutes from PSL, 30 minutes when my dad is driving.

Re: Marlins @ NY Mets - PSL - Mets @ Cardinals - Jupiter

All ballplayers are human and vulerable to human frailties. Tejada also. We need to get past instant gratification being the only acceptable outcome. It's unsustainable and it makes us fat and arrogant and self-destructive and miserable, no matter our wealth. You negotiate with the fates as maturely and rationally as possible. Emotional reactions like "It's not worth the aggravation" get you more aggravation and less success. Or as a wiser person said, the path of least resistance leads to the garbage heap of despair. That's my birthday homily.

In Jupiter, the Mets score three runs with two out in the first against Brad Penny. The big blow was an RBI double by Tatis. In St. Lucie, Jon Niese has struck out three through 1 1/3.

Re: Marlins @ NY Mets - PSL - Mets @ Cardinals - Jupiter

In the battle for number five, nieve has the mostly-A-team Cardinals and has two scoreless innings, with two hits, one a double, a walk, and two whiffs. Niese went 2 2/3 against Florida's A, yielding three hits, a two walks, and an earned run, while fanning five. The run scored after he was relieved by Jennry Mejia, as Darry Strawberry drooled.

Re: Marlins @ NY Mets - PSL - Mets @ Cardinals - Jupiter

Sorry, there, Emily. A two-run pinch triple by Frank Catalonotto gives the Mets and Figgy a ninth-inning lead in Jupiter. But a two-run homer by Mike Stanton (get a new name, Kid --- Mickey, maybe) puts the Marlins on top of the Mets in the tenth.
