    I've always been much more of a Marvel guy than a DC guy, but I've always had a bit of affection for Green Lantern. I'm glad they included the iconic scene of Hal finding the wrecked spaceship. (If only the Hulk movie had had Rick Jones playing a harmonica in his car out in the desert...) I'll probably see Green Lantern, and I may even like it. But if I saw that clip, and didn't know the characters, I doubt that I'd be interested in seeing the movie. It looks like a lot of costumes and makeup, and a bloated confusing story. But that's typically the kind of stuff that gets included in trailers, so it's hard to judge. Right now, it's Thor that I'm looking forward to.

    I remember having this same discussion about, I think it was Jorge Julio, and Ryan Howard in April 2007. I wanted Julio (or whoever) to pitch to Howard, to test his mettle under fire. Ryan ended up hitting a three-run homer (or maybe a grand slam). Namor, I recall, said that games in April cound as much as games in September, and I said that you can't manage every game with your back to the wall. Of course, the Mets ended up losing the division by one game. Four years later, I still remember. Sheesh.

    That is good news. There may very well be a couple of openings in the Mets rotation this summer.

    I didn't listen to a lot of Phillies games, but I never saw the appeal of Harry Kalas.

    Oops, missed that. I'm only in "skim" mode today. Glad to know that Don Carman's still alive!

    Why are we talking about Don Carman? He didn't die or anything, did he?

    Matt Harvey debuts at number 4, huh? Not bad. I wonder when we might see him.

    What's the latest ETA on Jason Bay? I don't expect that he's going to provide much, but the sooner he comes back the better, just in case he's better than I'm expecting him to be.
