I'm all for Willets Point. I don't live in the five boroughs, but I know how to get to the ballpark.

Kevin Parada up with the bags juiced and one out trying to do just that.

Anderson Severino getting raked here in the sixtherino, and the Nats take a 6-3 lead.

A few things would have to go wrong for him to make an Opening Day roster, but Christian Pache looks really good in center, and he's been hitting, too.

Australia's 3-0 opener victory over Chinese Taipei is being reported as a "huge" upset. I did not know this was supposed to be such a mismatch. Taiwan produces terrific Little League teams, but I have not been as impressed by their adult teams.

Somehow, the Mets logged three hits and a hit-by-pitch in a single inning, without scoring.

Game tied at threes after Hagenman gives up two and Warren 1. Tauchman killing it with two hits and a walk in three plate appearances.

I'm watching the Nationals TV feed, and the banter from the Nationals radio booth next door is bleeding in.

Mets up 3-0, featuring a two-run homer by Baty, who is making his spring debut in right.

This guy has a ways to go to find his way forward, but I hope he is still at it when he is 45.

Not necessarily big enough to pull off such a great name, but maybe if he grows a big shrubby beard, he can make it work.

Pool C action is under way as Australia "hosts" Chinese Taipei under the bright lights of The Tokyo Dome.

The Mets, according to Anthony DiComo, have signed minor-league pitcher Dan Hammer to a two-year minor-league contract, the second character this spring they have signed to that very unusual contract. Hammie — a 28-year-old career minor-leaguer — will seemingly need two years to get his **** turned around, as his career has featured a live fastball but an almost stunning lack of success. After an unimpressive college-career with Pitt, he registered a dynamite pro debut with Baltimore in the now formerly short-season NY-Penn League. Then the lost season of 2020 happened, and he spent the rest of his minor-league career posting ERAs between 4.13 and infinity, before joining Tampa's system last year, registering an eye-opening 2.11 WHiP. I tend to think of WHiP as a fantasy league stat, but it's just a condensation of 12.2 hits per nine and 6.8 walks per nine, and that is a portrait of a guy named Hammer getting hammered. And that's a 27-year-old at AA. If the Mets get this guy to level up enough to get value out of him, geniuses will be too polite a word to describe them. Anyhow, welcome to the organization, Dan Hammer. I believe in you.

Wilmer Flores has publicly asserted he is still jobhunting and available. With Rhys Hoskins being two years younger and coming off a better season, but still settling for a minor-league deal, opportunities are thinning out.

Stopped screwing around is what they did. Also, Mets prospect Jordan Geber was on the mound for Israel, and clearly he was compromised by mixed emotions.

Here in the seventh inning, the Israelites tie it up on a homer by Cardinal prospect Zach Levenson off of Adbert Alzolay.

Carson Ben-Gay breaks the hitless run with his first spring homer!

I overlooked him above, but the Nicaragua team is also deploying light-hitting Binghamtom infielder Kevin Villavicencio. Kevin is Mexico-born but I guess he comes from a Nicaragua background. Team Nicaragua deployed him late in yesterday's game, in left field, and he went 1-for-1.

Izzy no-hitting the Mets through two.

The guy needs to see some some action. And the Mets need to be more considerate of the needs of Mets Roster Central and not cut their guys in dribs and drabs, but lop 'em off 10 at a time. The Mets report 68 guys still in camp, but we have 71, so we might need to do some reviewing.

Since being dispatched by the Mets in mid-2024, he has played for four indy-league teams — two in the American Association and two in the Atlantic League. While one of those teams included his hometown Ducks, he only had any success with one of those four, and he is back with that team (The Gary SouthShore Rail Cats) this spring.

But while his single season in Mets clothing was solid (3.20 ERA over 39 1/3 innings for Bingo), he became an utter force of nature for The York Revolution in 2025, mowing the Atlantic League down to the tune of a 0.61 ERA over 44 innings, surrendering only 26 hits and zero homers. That got him a ticket back to affiliated ball, in the form of a contract with the Rays, which is sort of an MLB franchise.

As this one has reached his 30the birthday and has been putting up double-digit ERAs since 2023, it is easy to see why he may not want to remember. He has pitched for two teams since leaving the Mets, but is currently un-employed. It isn't a desirable place to be in one's career, but he has our best wishes.

He is not (at least, not as far as I know). The thread refers to the process of "creep" — by which a bad change (in this case, the proliferation of number retirements) is allowed to happen by changing so gradually that no specific change is so large as to trigger a backlash. Sort of like the addition of logos and advertising to MLB uniforms has long been referred to by uniform watchers as "logo creep."

Cowboy Jorge Polanco, seemingly without the first idea how to draw a baseball cap, has rendered some living creature on top of his head. [FIMG=500]https://pbs.twimg.com/media/HCbf-DVWEAAoX-H?format=jpg&name=large[/FIMG]
