    Yeah. One wonders if this is the year he stumbles, Ikelike,through mystery injuries --- where "we're gonna sit him for two days; he wants to get out there and if this were September, he would be, but we want to be safe" turns into 11 weeks of headscratching.

    Laggy plunked in shoulder. Anybody watching able to report if he's OK?

    Wheeler: 5.1 IP, 2 ER, 1 BB, 2 K. Farnsworth on. Velocity up to 93, 94.

    Yeah, I expected to read the word "fracture" or "fractures" before the day was out. Better facial instead of cranial, I guess.
  7. Edgy MD
    Well, he said some sources have indicated as such, anyhow.
  8. Edgy MD
    Yeah, I guess these pre-season/in-season international road trips might one day give a guy a chance to break Maury Wills' record for games in a season.

    Sources have the Cardinals dangling Pete Kozma, who was, somehow, just as bad with the bat as Tejada last year --- and actually never really hit in the minors either. But he stayed healthy and I guess would satisfy the any-face-but-Tejada's crowd. He pretty much owes his career to the only time he ever hit having occured during a September stretch and into the post-season. I guess he's a modern-day Brian Doyle in this regard. Anyhow, if his presence on the block softens the market one iota for one of Arizona's or Seattle's shortstops, I guess that'd be helpful.

    Yeah, one wonders if Parnell has the post-op comfort level to really let her rip, or if he's shy or stiff or uncomfortable when all the twisting and torquing a pitcher puts his neck through hits that surgical incision point.

    I've resisted my curiosity thus far. Reds so far are reporting contusion(s) and lacerations.

    Reds-Royals game in Surprise canceled after Aroldis Chapman throws a 99-mph-fastball and it gets lined right back to his face. Chapman collapsed but remained moving while he was being attended to. I've got to think this is going to be a watermark moment in the evolution toward armoring pitchers' heads.

    This trade has totally been oversold!

    Satin = "The infield reserve who can hit." Seratelli = "The infield reserve who field." Flores = "The infield reserve who can wait." Flores = "The infield reserve who has options." Flores = "The infield reserve who is still improving his game." Flores = "The infield reserve who could use reps toward the possible future development into an infield starter." Flores = "The infield reserve trying to prove he can hack it at shortstop despite what the development guys say." Flores = "The infield reserve who probably should be headed to Vegas."

    It's 4:38. This trade sucks.

    Sandy knows investigative security guys from his days cracking down on player procurement corruption in the Dominican. If he wants to bust a mole, he's gonna bust a mole.
  17. Edgy MD
    Well, "stay away" implies a personal initiative, while it's probably more accurate to suggest the Mets assigned him to be somewhere else, and he obediently complied.

    Cervelli is a Meathead who was born for the Yankees. Radio hosts and middle schoolers love to talk about Met/Yankee trades. Those are the rosters they know. That said, Lutz is the kind kind of guy who gets dealt for a roster filler like a backup catcher, and Cervelli has good OBP skills.
  19. Edgy MD
    The nature of trades usually means trading a guy you know well for somebody you don't know so much. But beyond that, I don't think there's a black/white difference between prospects and allegedly known quantities. It's more a matter of degrees of certainty. I mean, yeah, we know what Gee can do. Among other things, he can get hurt. Gregorius, on the other hand, is something more than an entirely unknown quantity himself. He's got 111 games under his hat, more than Satin or Brown or Flores or a bunch of other guys were hoping to see something from. Plus, he's got like a five-year minor-league track record.

Reinforcements will be on the way, but it'd be an uncomfortable April and May. Maybe, but you roll the dice any way you turn. Is rolling the dice with Tejada on a daily basis the way to go? Life is fraught with peril. The wise man doesn't dodge the roll, but instead chooses his dice with deep deliberation. Maybe Arizona will throw in Henry Blanco and J.J. Putz and we can shore up some weaknesses and have a reunion if dubious Omar Minaya-era acquisitions.

    I too was thinking the Mets might bite the bullet and deal off Gee. It'd probably be a painful bite for the Mets, as he and his wife seem like good citizens and he's a healthy-ish young vet in a rotation full of old (Colon), fat (Colon), of questionable health (Niese, Mejia), of unquestionably BAD health (Hefner, Harvey), the high-living and model-chasing (Harv), and the young and innings-restricted (everybody but Niese, Colon, and maybe Lannan). But Gee has had two surgeries himself, so maybe this is that peaceful oasis period and it's the high-value time to deal him off, and just live with the question-mark-riddled-but-deep-staff that they have. Fear of uncertainty is for the faint of heart. Gee would be much more dealable if Lannan hadn't looked so hittable thus far. But the strikeout/walk ratio isn't so bad. Maybe they're seeing more from him in workouts then we're seeing in games.

    I think Michigan is on to something. If the anymous source speaks only for himself, you're not doing anybody any service running it. If your headline is... Source in Mets Management Says Leadership Team, Including GM Alderson, Thinks Tejada is Fat, Fat, FAT ...that's a story! If your headline is... Source in Mets Management Says Tejada is Fat, Fat, FAT ...then your better choice would probably be... Mets Harbouring Blowhard Coward on Payroll Because really, him/her leaking and breaking ranks with nothing more than an ill-informed opinion and no backup says more about him or her than about Tejada.

    Does THE DEAL long predicted by the Bucket go down today? Who are the dealers? Who are the chips? What will the reaction be?
