Marcum vs. Strasburg. Wheeler will pitch.

Wheeler will pitch IF the weather's perfect, I imagine.

Orange dudes are guys with options?



The hand of Davy Johnson?

Strasburg looking human ... Tejada gives us first KABOOM
of the pre-season.

Byrd also smacks a double to the RF gap, but Duda leaves him hanging as he watches strike three pass by.

Wheeler getting loose. Pavlovian drooling has begun.

Wheeler walks his first batter. He sucks. Why did we trade Beltran for him? Fuck you, Sandy.

I clapped my hands for that comment. The Crypt Keeper should ban "everybody clap your hands" for the good of the game.

Thanks.

I can also live without the suicidal Jets toothbrush Geico Sports Nite ad.

For someone who is genuinely excited about having baseball back on TV, I'm incredibly cranky about these things.

MLBN !!

I thought it was a 1:00 kickoff and so wound up missing the first hour. Hate when that happens.
Did tune in just in time to catch Wheeler's bacK-to-bacKs though.

Shades of Cleon and Rickey (and Mark Carreon) - Colin Cowgill bats right, throws left. Also, doubles off the center field wall to drive in the go-ahead run.

If you like Reed and O'Day, you'll love Greg Burke.

Missed this due to a family party/recording the wrong channel on DVR (MLBN instead of SNY), but Wheeler pops the glove nicely on the MLB.com highlights. Mazzoni impressed, too?

Re: STIGT, 02/23 - Gnats at Mets

I liked watching Mazzoni pitch. He has a very aesthetically pleasing delivery.

Like Wheeler, he did a nice job of working out of trouble: Leadoff single, then a blown DP grounder (Bixler?) made it 2 on, none out in the inning I watched but he got out without surrendering a run.

Re: STIGT, 02/23 - Gnats at Mets

Just viewed the game. Wheeler looked very good. Smooth. Rubens kaboomer looked like a routine fly off the bat that just kept goin (am I gonna have to whip up some kabooms for Tejeda? Hope so). I know its early to say but I hope Duda finds his swing cuz he still looks a little lost to me. Turners gonna have a hairy year. Get that kid more playing time! Good game. Really nice to hear Gary,Keith and Ron (& Ojeda) doin their thang. They are the best. Great to see baseball back.
