When in doubt, listen to Swanson.

"This was more mechanical. Times have changed. Times have changed in what people believe, and I just believe a little differently sometimes."

Oh for fucks sake Sandy, it's the same nonsense you tell each Spring Training at Mets camp. I know spring has arrived when Koufax spouts auld guff talk. Cue Bobby saying all manner of nonsense about the great advice he got. All time great though is Sandy.

Hey, um, sorry man. Think I touched a nerve.

[metirish]

Nah, was having some fun, but somethings about Spring Training never changes,not a bad thing.

[Edgy MD]

Terms to file away for future usage: "auld guff talk."

Parnell shuttles into obscurity.

I predict that by May I'm cursing at my big television as Parnell consistently pumps high 90's fastballs towards the plate with no inclination towards putting them within the strike zone.

If it's Thursday, Koufax must be dishing out pitching tips to the young Mets hurlers. By this weekend, he'll be touting Fred Wilpon for Humanitarian of the Year. "I used to be the best pitcher in the world. But now, thanks to my BFF Fred Wilpon, I'm penniless. Vote for Fred."

I would, but I wondering if we'd lose/forget players if more than one person starts making prediction threads.
