Roadtesting Josh Lewin for the first time, although with Ed and not Howie. I recognize that voice.

Hope Dickey's performance is bigger than Wang today. Listening to the beginning too. like him so far, but I knew I would cause I read Faith and Fear.

Mets go 1-2-3: Lewin mentions his age (43) and makes a Shinjo reference. OK with me.

Ryan Church in the house watching his two former clubs.

Mets down 3-0 after one but have the sacks juiced with no outs in the second.

wasn't paying close attention, think he just defended the black uniforms.

Satin blows it with a whiff. Johnson plates one on a groundout. Quintanilla with a chance to show his quality.

First pitch single to center!

Lewin: "Tim Teufel makes Vanilla Ice look like Tupac."

Lewin self-conscious that he's under scrutiny. He just prefaced a reference to the ball-off-the-wall play with "I'll show you how far I go back with Mets history."

It's spring training. If Josh feels that it's important to establish his Mets pedigree, this is the time for him to get it out of his system.

Yeah, I warned him as much. Still he got in my pants on our first date with the Metsmerized thing.

It occurs to me this could be the first time in my life I've listened to a Mets broadcaster who was younger than me.

How old is Kevin Burkhardt?
|
John Cougar Lunchbucket Mar 10 2012 01:22 PM Re: Xigt: Nats-Mets 3/10 |
he doesn't count, not a radio guy. But I'd guess he's like, 29.

he graduated William Paterson in 1997, so that puts him at like ~36.

Marty Glickman is younger than me. (R.I.P.)

Maybe Lewin is Gary Cohen, Jr.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Mar 10 2012 01:48 PM Re: Xigt: Nats-Mets 3/10 |
So how about that Jason Bay? Weak 0-fer-3 and a poorly played game in the outfield. He really lights the fire doesn't he.
|
Ceetar Mar 10 2012 01:53 PM Re: Xigt: Nats-Mets 3/10 |
|
well, it's Spring so I doubt he's really worried about it. Maybe he's saving his hits for the season.

Christ man, based on what?, his previous two great seasons with the Mets? you're taking optimism to a whole new level :)

no, sorry, that was sarcasm ;-) I don't care if he goes 0-40 or 40-40 though, It won't change my guesses at his 2012 one bit, and I'm not sure he's all pumped to try to put up a big spring either. I know we sorta project that the struggling guys want to try hard, but it's probably not true. (Like how Pelfrey got criticized for sucking the other day but people will barely mention Dickey's mess today)
