Is there anyone who thinks that a ball lost in the lights is the standard to judge this on?

At least the games the last two nights have ended early with little drama!

Not a total waste-- we've gotten a good look at Nick Johnson, of the magic first-base glove and .400-plus OBP.

Personally, I think he'd look better a year older, in blue and orange.

no thanks. i do like the guy, he's a guy i'd acquire mid-season as a "plan B" if it became necessary, but i wouldnt want to go into the year with him as the starter, his history has been to hit the DL for long stretches every year

Most of the Mets hit the DL for long stretches. Seems like Johnson would fit right in with this team.
