That is so not getting it done for me. I need action, live video.

When does SNY release their spring training TV schedule?


First radio broadcast is 3/5 at 6pm. Should have Howie, since he's got a game on LI the night before and then has until the 8th to get to Newark.

I need a weekday matinee, I can "work from home" and watch the game at the same time.

Scott Kasmir worked out today for a number of teams. Here's a report from someone I correspond with* down there:

So here's the quick run down of today's event. First and foremost Scott is a great guy and very down to earth, even with some serious $$$ in his pocket. He is much more muscular than I thought and seemed to be in decent shape for a shot at a comeback. He threw around 60 pitches for 8-10 scouts (I took note of the Blue Jays, Pirates, Astros and Angels in attendance). His fastball ended up sitting around 88 and he touched 91 a few times (Buster Olney will report 86-88 because Scott's agent texted him that info, and I hope he corrects it, because it's not true). His slider showed some life at 76-78 and his curveball wasn't overly sharp. When he finished his pitches and kept the ball down, he threw a lot more efficiently. Definitely a lot better than his 82-83 mph bullpen in the Dominican last month. Astros and Pirates showed the most interest, and he will be throwing a followup pen on Monday for a few additional teams. All in all a solid outing for him in my opinion...

Dickey explains to Thole how he's going to once again make his life miserable, while in the background, Jeurys Familia rubs a baseball and plots a murder.

Another comment is that Justin Turner is his backup firstbaseman. I guess the takeaway on that is that, if Ike was unavailable, he wouldn't want to deny Murphy development time at second, even if it might make more sense. I guess.

Also lists Hairston as his backup centerfielder and Torres as his leadoff hitter.

I read (via Metsblog IIRC) that the Mets are not interested and didn't even send a scout.

@Buster_ESPN
Mets are among six teams Scott Kazmir is considering, and he could make a decision sometime in next few days.
