    OT: Mets 2026 Season Thread

    Other than maybe giving Lindor a day off I don’t see how he gets any consistent at-bats. Does Mendoza use him as a late game defensive replacement at 3rd for Bichette while Bo is still settling in to the spot?

    Living here in the Valley and being retired lets me experience every part of spring training. As much fun as the games are pick one day when they are on the road and just go hang at the facility. There’s plenty of guys who didn’t make the trip going thru workouts or in the cage. Crowds are way...

    They are not bringing him north to platoon him. He will be the everyday RF. He is the 1st of the Stearns era bats to reach the majors which is exciting to me. There was (and still is) some hand wringing from Mets fans about this makeover but this is how you build teams that compete every year...

    Excited to see Pena. He’s still very young and raw but scouts are pretty consistent in their appraisal of his skills.

    Manaea shelled again today while Tobias Myers goes 3 scoreless innings. Maybe Manaea stays in FL for extended spring training and Myers is in rotation to start year?

    Although it’s still early you have to think Benge goes north with the team. He has looked very comfortable and doesn’t appear to be overmatched in any way. There is no value in sending him to Syracuse.

    Ewing really showing his skills so far this spring. Another really good day today, 2-2 with a HR, and 3 runs scored. He’s not ready for Queens yet but he’s coming fast.

    OT: Weekend snowstorm - historic blizzzard

    This was a couple days before the Giants Super Bowl in Pasadena. We barely beat the storm flying out of Newark. Friends who were coming on a later flight didn’t make until the night before the game.

    Harbaugh must’ve done the media tour today. Was on with Dan Patrick too.

    Thru the years we’ve seen relievers catch lightning in a bottle and have great years out of nowhere. If Alzolay still has the big arm after his injuries, he could be a nice surprise. A return to his 2023 form would be a major asset in the pen.

    Skubal wins arbitration, $32MM. Do the Tigers take a 1 year shot at pairing him and Valdez and try to win big or do they move him for what will be a massive return now?

    OT: 2026 PGA Tour Thread - Masters Week

    Should be a great week here in the Valley for Waste Management. Will be there Wednesday, Saturday & Sunday. Look for real low scores as temps will be 75-80 and conditions are going to be perfect.
