Hopefully Fman wasn't touching him.

Re: IGT 3/29

Is Beato still wearing No. 70? He's apparently on the team now.

Probably. I know Emaus is supposed to switch to 4, I doubt they'd bother stitching up a new uniform for him at this point.

Re: IGT 3/29

I would totally stick with 70, were I Beato.

Or 77, for a little bit of Wendell-y flair (sans animal teeth).

Isn't Carrasco 77?

Re: IGT 3/29

Indeed he is.

88, then. High numbers-- or extremely low numbers-- on bullpenners rule.

Re: IGT 3/29

Wright hits a three-run shot to right and the Mets are up 7-2.

I'm not always good with the numbers. (cost me $130 once) Who's a really low number bullpen guy? I assume you mean single digits and not like Wagner's 13?

Re: IGT 3/29

There are no single digit relievers in Mets history. Shingo Takatsu (remember him?) was a 10.

Re: IGT 3/29

Current non-Met relievers? Not sure.

I know Josh Towers was #7 with the Jays*, and Kawakami's been wearing 11 with the Bravos for the last couple of years. I think the Reds' little lefty screwballer-- Herrera?-- had a high-single-digit or low-teens number (something like 9 or 13, IIRC).

*Thanks, fantasy baseball!

Rob Bell of the Rangers wore No. 2 a few years back iirc.

I'm a little surprised Closers don't go for #9.

Re: IGT 3/29

I recall Vida Blue wearing a single digit, but his b-r page says no. David Wells wore 3 in Boston IIRC.

Re: IGT 3/29

There's actual baseball going on, you detail junkies. The Mets lead 8-2 over the team that's supposed to drag them into the basement.

Three scoreless from Chris Cap (gotta stretch that mofo), another perfect inning from Boyer (with one K), and Byrdak came on with two out in the sixth to strike out Rick Ankiel. (In a real late-inning RBI situation, does Ankiel get left in there, or would he get swapped out for a righty --- Jerry Hairston? --- at this stage of his career?)

Well, you need to update us more frequently then, since there's no freaking audio, the Android version of the app doesn't have video (those bastards) and I don't havea tv in my cubicle (you think my productivities bad now?)

I do enjoy Spring Training, but this last week is the worst part of it.

Scoreless innings by Bucholz and Parnell.

Rodriguez on for the sort of contract-boosting low-leverage game finish we are rooting against.

Frankie with a BB, a single, and a K in the ninth.

Put it in the books!

Re: IGT 3/29

It's a great little park. We had great seats, cold beers, beef franks and baseball. Wright's HR was an opposite field shot. Capuano was solid though I was surprised he left so early.

My wife and son cooked out there like soft cheese on a hotplate.
