Good news is game is televised, bad news is you'll have to watch YES. Montero vs Tanaka for starters...

Mets break to the early lead over the Yankees for the second straight time on the strength of the bat and wheels of Juan Lagares. This time he doubled, stole third, and scored on a throwing error by catcher John Ryan Murphy. Laggy on his way to gaining for himself as Most Hated Met status in Yankee circles. METS!

I don't see a visitors lineup at that link. And to be clear, I mean lineups before game starts... once it starts the sites all have score updates, etc.

I just search for "Tigers" + "Lineup" on the Twitter. Some fool is out there racing to be the first to tweet it.

Hey, Headley tied it up. BOOOO!!!!

Twitter would be the last place I'd go, but I guess I'll have to adapt sooner or later.

No doubt. You can also get it relatively early from MLB Gameday, but you can't do the easy copy/paste thing there. Mayboomy.

Reynolds squares one up to the deepest part of the park, on a two-strike count no less. They're not smacking Tanaka around, but when they're hitting him, they're getting giant sequoia on it.

Edgy MD Mar 25 2015 12:28 PM Re: xIGT 03/25 - Mets at Yankees

Yeah, Juan Lagares says different, as his home run chases Tanaka.

Nope, that was off Betances, whose -- Michael Kay fantasy note!-- "struggles this spring continue." I think it's a great sign that among the guys who've been the most exciting this spring are starters with room to improve (JohnnyLags, BillyFlowers). Montero's looking great today, and I find myself wishing that Terry hadn't been so publicly Gee-whiz about the fifth-starter.

Another 1 2/3 innings scoreless from Gilmartin. His earlier turd appearances keep his ERA inflated, but this guy is looks like a lock for the team, however much wishful thinking must be attached to that.

Runs off Tanaka? - Check Runs off Bettances? - Check Runs off Andrew Miller? - Check

Article this morning talking about how Bettances admits his velocity this spring has been "nowhere near where I want it to be" and how his last outing started with eight consecutive balls.

well, there's always the "Spring Training stats mean nothing" truth.

Edgy MD Mar 25 2015 01:51 PM Re: xIGT 03/25 - Mets at Yankees

I would think they mean more in the aggregate.
