Still getting the cobwebs out, but baseball is on the air today.

I have a meeting with the director of marketing. I'm going to have to cancel.

I recorded the game at home so I can watch the intro and get all teary eyed. Excited to check out WORs opening though.

I officially sent the "I'm taking off 3/31" email today though so I'll tolerate missing the official beginning of spring if it happens.

I usually set it as my text ringtone for march, but haevn't gotten around to it. radio broadcast was basically the same. highlights, Howie, off we go.

Listened to part of inning 1 in the car at lunch. Reception on OR is OK, but Howie and Josh sound like they're broadcasting from the bottom of a barrel.

The new Ralph patch, tho very small like I feared, looks great.

Duda, DH, drives one into the gap in left center where some dirty Nat makes a great snow-cone diving snatch.

Young got the first hit, leading off the game for the Mets. Travis d just stroked a guided missile right over 3rd for a stand up double.

I like the understated classiness of it. I think that Ralph would have approved.

That's a 3:10 start. No score after 3.

It is bigger than a quarter by quite a bit. I think Ralph would have said: "Aww, you guys didn't have to do that for me."

Not that I can find. $19.99 for the season. And the "listen now" link on the WOR page goes to their regular mid-day programming or whatever.

deGrom looked great. 4 Ks over two innings.

Ike lifted one to center this time up. I really want Ike to have a great year, and it's way too early to tell, but I see no real change in his approach so far. Or the results.

Actually not as nice as I initially thought. If that didn't go over the wall I think Satin may have tap danced home.

You can download the app for free definitely.. it's the subscription afterwards that cost $19.99 but you should still be able to get the Springgames.

Is Eric Goedel's name pronounced with one of those invisible German R's, as heard in "The Goethels Bridge" or "Joseph Goebbels"?

Well, Puello has an arm there. Not an accurate one, but he's got an arm.

Wow. Da guyz bring up a good point about replay on that grounder over the second base bag. Since it wasn't a feed, is the neighborhood play applicable? Or could that be reviewed.

If denDecker couldn't throw that guy out at second, and he couldn't catch up to that wicked drive over his head, what's he good for?

Greg, that's nice and all, but if i were you, I'd take that as an insult. Many of the bloggers i read (including you) are far superior to most columnists currently in print. The assumption that its the other way around is an ill-informed 20th century notion.

Howie went on late last season about some great NY columnists -- Vic Ziegel, George Vecsey and Steve Jacobson were cited. As someone who also heard it said to me when we were discussing it, one of those guys is dead and two are retired.

[url]http://www.cbssports.com/mlb/scoreboard Just was looking at Ike's homer again. That was on a curve ball. He's all over 12-6 slot curves. Anymore side to side than that and he gets all discombobulated. He can't expect to get a perfect swing on every pitch. Like Keith did so well, Davis has to learn to foul off the pitches he doesn't like when they are that close to the zone with 2 on him. Come-on Keith! Go talk to Ike!
That was good. Black seemed naturally kool.
|
| Edgy MD Mar 01 2014 08:00 AM Re: Sting Spraining GIT AWS @ MYN |

I'd say there's nobody who can get a perfect swing on every pitch. Let's try not to judge broadly by every pitch starting on day one of spring training. The overall outcome today was benevolent. I'd take it every day, of course, but that too would be over-projecting.
|
| Ceetar Mar 01 2014 09:05 AM Re: Sting Spraining GIT AWS @ MYN |
|
|
Really as long as he can lay-off or foul off enough pitches, in general, that make pitchers throw enough hittable pitches that he can smack out of the park/off the wall, that's fine.

Montero throws hard, like, for a human. For a ballplayer? Well... he seemed to sit low-90s. But the precision is nice-- he was all around the corners and bottom of the zone. Demisurgical, I'd say. Young Mr. deGrom, on the other hand... there's fire in thar. His heater hit 96 once or twice, with some serious sink. (HIS interview game, though... is young-Duda-esque.)

I am finally getting a chance to watch this on the DVR. Mets just GIDP'd in the bottom of the 7th. Ike's shot was quite nice. It's mostly just nice to have some baseball to watch.
