One of the many great things about baseball is that you don't have to understand the commentry.....great catch by Endy..

Strat-O-Matic?

[Guest Edgy DC]

Also bringing it for Magallanes is apoptee Edgar Alfonzo, 2-1, 3.38 in 17 games while playing alongside Uncle Edgardo. Peripherals looks bad, though.

Anderson Hernandez is doing good.

] It's been an interesting year for Anderson Hernandez. Nine months ago, he was the New York Mets' Opening Day second baseman. A back injury derailed the 24-year-old infielder, who spent most of the season working on his batting stroke at Triple-A Norfolk. He hit .249 with the Tides but seems to be back on his way to Shea Stadium after dominating in the Dominican Winter League playoffs. The 5-foot-9, 170-pound switch-hitter is second in the league with a .419 postseason batting average and 18 hits. He is also tied for the lead with 13 runs scored and has nine RBIs in 11 games with the Tigres del Licey.

Any of those hits leave the infield?

How does Anderson Hernandez suck balls up here, but he goes down to winter ball, and he's Tony Gwynn? Small sample sizes are a funny game.

[Guest Yancy Street Gang]

It's not just small sample size. There's also a different level of competition.

And it's encouraging. Can't we even have pleasant dreams in January?

[Guest iramets]

Mets fans have pleasant dreams 12 months of the year, 24/7.
