Pedro pitches in St. Lucie vs. Brevard County tonight at 7 p.m. at Tradition Field.

He is expected to throw about 45 pitches and says that he "would not hold back."

Hold not back, Pedro.

SNY will show it live.

I remember cursing ESPN for showing Clemens minor league starts....oh well.

Cool. With luck, we'll get a D-Teamer booth team like Ephraim Albert and Kelvin Chapman.

Yeah, but that's ESPN. You'd hope they'd have more important stories to cover than Fatass pitching to 18-year-olds. I'd like our flagship station to show this start; could be interesting to watch, and give most of us our first look at our own young guys.

Where's our PSL correspondent? Get him on the horn. We need real time updates and photos.

I welcome the thought of having Pedro's start being pipe-lined into my
living room, I just hope his path to return doesn't become a three ring
Metstercluckerfocker of a circus.

I agree with seawolf. I also thought it ridiculous to have ESPN televise Clemens' minor league start, but it would have made perfect sense for YES to show it.

And it makes sense for SNY to show Pedro's start.

Rained Out.


Pedro will, instead, pitch a simulated game tomorrow morning.
(and I will simulate excitement about it)

How can a game be rained out two hours before starting in Florida? The
freakin' weather there, especially in the summer, changes more time than
Willie makes a bad decision in a ball game.
