New York Mets Winter Report 2012-13

Yup Saucy I am the Cyclones official Big Brother watching those guys developed and grow is my passion.
I miss all of my guys already and can’t wait to see em all again when they get in on Saturday night.

Murphy will play in the game against the Nats today I think it is on ESPN at 1pm he is going to play second and expects to go about 4 innings. Daniel will also play the rest of the spring games and assuming all goes well will be in the lineup on opening day :D

Yup I’m ready to play



As to Turner no one expects him to start the season on the DL Terry Collins even said that he doesn’t think Turner’s injury is a big concern.What happened was during the game yesterday his leg cramped up during a play at third base. Then when later when he came up to bat it started to bother him some so he left to have the calf looked at. Justin thinks is that it might have gotten a little tight from maybe compensating a little bit for the ankle he injured and he may have unconsciously been trying to favor that ankle and put too much pressure on the other leg. Last night it wasn’t really sore to walk around or stretch or anything. Just a bit tender to touch. Hopefully he can just whatever treatment he needs maybe take some medication and get it to calm down in a day or two, he should be fine.

DWright is also going to continue playing but he will stay on the minor leagues for at least another day or two but he is also expected to make opening day.

The Ike man will get the day off, Collins wants to give Duda some more exposure at first again. Duda is going to be our left fielder but could also fill in for Ike now and again just as Turner will fill in for Murph at second and Wright at third.

Allow me to second Saucy and say "hallelujah" it's almost time for the new season

So the lineup today will, be Cowgill-LF, Murphy-2B, Duda-1B, Baxter-RF, Lutz-3B, Nieuwenhuis-CF, Recker-C, Quintanilla-SS, Tapia on the mound

Let me repeat MURPHY AT SECOND BASE!! (!)
 
I'm getting psyched as the season draws closer! Will try to catch a few innnings of today's game, and see the Mets in action. Glad that Turner's calf seems to be a minor issue, he is pretty valuable right now with both Murphy and Wright coming off their injuries. I see the Mets gave Ramirez to the Angels for $$$, I'm still kind of hoping the Mets will find an outfield bat in their "Easter basket" before Monday.
 
My first notification about Johan came at about 330 yesterday afternoon in the form of an urgent text from KB which read SNY NOW! As soon as I saw Santana I thought this is it this will not be good. Many of us are surprised to hear that he will not be pitching for us again but no one thought it would end the way it did. Everyone I have spoken to since the announcement is just so bummed by the news that Johan has re-torn his shoulder capsule in his left shoulder and may require another surgery on it. While no one wants to say it out loud we are all thinking the same thing and that is the end of Santana's time with the Mets, and perhaps it marks the end of his big league career.
Of course the media (ya know I how I love those guys) :rolleyes: has decided to focus on Oh Boo Hoo the poor Mets Santana's contract is not insured and the team will therefore still be on the hook for the $31 million he is owed. So fuckin what! What about Gocho and how he must feel not to mention the rest of the team and how much all of them loved, admired and respected him let’s talk about that, let’s talk about the man who gave us so much in the time he was with us. Let’s start with a replay of the no hitter all the smiles and celebration let’s see that again. Let’s have a celebration of Santana and not a wake.
What’s next on our rotation is up in the air but I am pretty sure Alderson in his heart knew that Johan was not going to pitch for us this year long before this news came in so interesting to see what he does. I will not speculate here and No I do not expect this news to change what will happen with Wheeler cause now more than ever Zack needs to face Triple-A hitters before coming to Flushing.
And there is always Syams hope for an "Easter basket" ;)

The news came just about the time that Daniel Murphy played in his first major league spring training game, and how about his energy he had more fun yesterday than should be legally allowed going 1-for-3.He had a broken-bat single against Gonzalez in his first at-bat, then lined out to second base. But the fun came when after his single he tagged up and dove into second on Duda's flyout to center field. Ok so it wasn’t exactly shall we say graceful and some question if he should have done that so soon after his injury but look if you know Daniel than you know that is what he does he is the Irish Hammer and he’s back baby. Important after was that although he bit the ground he felt pretty good on it, Even Duda was looking at him as if to say “are you kiddin me” but Murph felt it was the right play and it was nice to slide something he had not done much all spring so as he said it was nice to get the head first one out of the way. Murph did not care if he had gotten thrown out it is spring training after all he just wanted to try to get into scoring position even if it meant he was going “tackle second base." :badgrin: One of the things that was different for Murph was the realization once again about the speed of the game and how quicker it is here, he was genially if not pleasantly surprised at how far along he was. Yup just ask him and he will tell ya the lineout was a good swing, a good at-bat, especially since it came from the lefty Gio. Although his last at bat was a strikeout he felt good fouling off a breaking ball off it just simply felt good in there. So once again we wait till to see how todays goes which we think will be the final test yesterday went really well he didn't feel any discomfort at all he was able to just play the game. Now, he just needs to use these next two days to get his legs underneath me as much as possible.

Some of you may have heard the news about Jay Horwitz and his habit of butt-dialing people all hours of the day an night. I am here to tell you it’s true he really does do that and his new nick name of Professional butt-dialer is awesome. My digits are in Jay’s phone and I will say it would be an honor to be butt dialed by Jay cause to know Jay is to love him.
 
Yep, sonny..saw the Johann Santana news early this morning checking the sports on ESPN.com and was really bummed that he tore his shoulder again and well, if not his career overall that's it for his Mets career. It's got to be so devastating to someone with the competitiveness and professionalism of Johann to not only have that serious an injury happen once but now twice and you never want to see someone like that possibly never going to be that dominant pitcher he was ever again....maybe never pitch again in a major league game. I hope and pray that if he chooses to come all the way, he gets the opportunity to do so...I'm sure a number of clubs will take a chance on Johann but he will be 35 when he can return next year, and the odds aren't great but the way he is he'll do whatever he can to beat the odds. I can easily see him as a pitching coach saomeday, on't think he'd stay away from the game if he tries to return from the shoulder tear and it doesn't work out. I'm with sonny in celebrating Johann's Mets career, even the no hitter which in hindsight might have contributed to his tearing the shoulder again after putting so much effort to come back from the original tear.You know when Johann was out there he was using all the gifts of his considerable arm talent and brains and giving his teammates and the organization and the fans a 100% effort.

Glad that Murph is back with the Mets and did a good job yesterday against Gio Gonzalez and the Nats...even with that frisky baserunning play but sonny knows Murph well and that's what Murph does out there... he'll sometimes think he's Rickey Henderson:lol: and make something happen but at least he didn't get thrown out!;) Hopefully David Wright will be up playing with the major league club in the last couple of games and both will be in the lineup on Opening Day.

Jay Horwitz has beeen a loveable treasure for the Mets organization for many years, and from what I've seen through the years from news articles to being interviewed or being talked about he's beloved in the organization... didn't really know too much about the speeddialing thing or the nickname but it's got to be quite a kick for you sonny to be among those fortunate to know Jay well enough to be on that speed dial list.
 
I'll say this on Santana and my position hasn't changed. The no hitter wasn't worth it,period.
 
Saucy thanks for that Johan thoughts, he will decide by Monday if or not to have the surgery. I Think is it was quite a feat to come back after that first surgery hard to imagine he can do it again especially at his age. But he has said he is leaning towards that does not want to end his career on a bad note.

As to Jay Horwitz yup he is quite the funny man he now says he wants to parachute on to Citi field opening day….like I said funny man.

Opening day roster is beginning to get clearer and looks like right now:OF: Marlon Byrd, Collin Cowgill, Mike Baxter, and Lucas Duda, IF: David Wright, Ruben Tejada, Daniel Murphy, Ike Davis, C: John Buck, Anthony Recker, Starters Jon Niese, Matt Harvey, Dillon Gee, Jeremy Hefner Relief Bobby Parnell, Brandon Lyon, Scott Atchison, Josh Edgin, LaTroy Hawkins, Greg Burke, Jeurys Familia, Scott Rice

Some of what has happened the last few days are: Scott Rice beat out Robert Carson as the second left-hander in the bullpen. Omar Quintanilla will be going AAA Las Vegas which means the Mets will lose a backup shortstop to Ruben Tejada. Anthony Recker beat out Landon Powell as backup catcher to John Buck. Marlon Byrd, LaTroy Hawkins and Scott Atchison were added to the 40-man roster. Reese Havens and Darin Gorski have been placed through waivers. Jeurys Familia and Greg Burke have made the team. Still waitin on word of Justin Turner that injury is still naggin him a bit so not sure if he ends up on DL Monday. If he does than Zach Lutz and Kirk Nieuwenhuis should be on the roster.
Matt den Dekker and Tim Byrdak will also stay behind to continue rehabbing.
Looks like Shaun Marcum will open the season on the disabled list but should have no problems starting the season on time, he’s wearing a small brace on his arm, but he is not concerned and expects to be ready to be activated for Game 6. At that point, the eight-man bullpen would be reduced to seven. If Marcum isn’t ready then Aaron Laffey will most likely play. Pedro Feliciano needs to remain in Port St. Lucie to build arm strength. Gavin Cecchini will remain in Florida for extended spring training before joining us in Brooklyn when we gear up. Brandon Nimmo will open the season with A Savannah.
Pitcher Scott Rice has made the team. Reese Havens and Darin Gorski who were removed from the 40-man roster have cleared waivers. They are removing them from the roster in order to clear space. That means if one or both pass through waivers, they can be assigned to the minors.
Greg Burke and Jeurys Familia will be in the bullpen for Opening Day so we will have eight relievers, and count in Shaun Marcum if he goes DL for a backdated stint that will allow him to pitch after 5 days and that the Mets will demote one of the relievers prolly Burke or Familia to make room on the roster.
The Mets have released seven players from minor league camp: Brad Holt, Daniel Herrera, Craig Hansen, Mike Wilson, Corey Patterson, Pedro Zapata and Brandon Brown.
Jeremy Hefner you recall got injured but he threw off a mound yesterday and feels fine and expects to throw a few innings off the mound today as well.

Yesterday game was not televised but it was a good game for us beating the Cards. The big event was DWright played having up to now only played with the minors, he went 0-3 was great to see that he is back and ready to go. Matt Harvey finished his spring on a high note, giving up three hits and no runs in four innings. He walked two batters but struck out four. We will see Matt pitch in the regular season on Weds. Cowgill hit a two runner homer bringing his spring total top 5.Daniel Murphy went 2 for 4 with a run scored. Bobby Parnell struck out the side in the ninth.
Not sure I understand sending Quintanilla down we have Jordany Valdespin and Justin Turner who can play those positions but neither of them played there at all this spring, and boys guys lack a whole lot of experience at the position, so me confused by that. I mentioned my boy Justin Turner who is still a little bugged by that injury we thought he would be over that by now. Anyways Terry Collins will decide today if JT goes on the DL Zach Lutz will prolly take his spot he is already on the 40-man roster.
I was also a little surprised not to see Carson on the team after the demotion of Feliciano, but Terry Collins has been impressed with Rice all spring long.
Jenrry Mejia has been shut down by the Mets due to elbow inflammation, and will not pitch for at least six weeks. Odd cause an MRI showed no structural damage, sooo why shut him down, Mets explain please.
In a follow up to my Nick Evans story he has signed with Diamondbacks and will open season at AA Mobile.

The Mets play the last game of the spring today then tonight before headin home early tonight, gonna have a short workout tomorrow late morning before the big day on Monday.

Bags are packed and ready to go.



Have you got your opening day tickets?



This post may be a bit long winded, confusing even so if you have any question
 
Ok so all the boys are home safe and sound and ready to start the new season and OH BOY are they ready. For most of the guys spring training went on to long and are happy it’s over and can not wait to get started.

Getting ready for the boys





What is Ike needing from the vending machine? why extra socks of course, can never have too many of those



There will be a short maybe two hour tops workout today, getting gear in order and prepare for the big day tomorrow. The workout will be important for Justin Turner as Collins and the trainers will decide after that if he will play or go on the DL for a few days. Either way he is not in tomorrow’s lineup but his function all year will be to do what he does so well and that is give us the big RBIs off the bench. JT will also serve as relief for Tejada at short and can also fill in for Murph and Wright. Against the righties. expect to sometimes see Valdespin rather than Justin who would play against the lefties. Justin can also play first but Collins wants Duda to fill in there when ever Ike needs a day off.

Lineup for tomorrow is now set Collin Cowgill, cf Daniel Murphy, 2b David Wright, 3b Ike Davis, 1b Marlon Byrd, rf Lucas Duda, lf John Buck, c Ruben Tejada, ss Jonathon Niese, p

Our everyday players will remain as Lucas Duda in left field, Collin Cowgill in center field and Marlon Byrd in right field, there will be no platoons but filling in out there now and again will be Jordany Valdespin, Kirk Nieuwenhuis and Mike Baxter, also Nieuwenhuis likely will be a late-game defensive replacement for Duda. Getting back to Turner should he go out for a few days on the DL Zach Lutz will make the Opening Day roster in his place and Turner would be backdated four days into spring training, so he would be eligible to return April 12.It is a sure bet that Turner would be the primary backup at shortstop and if anything were to happen to either JT or Tejada the Mets would go to AAA Las Vegas and bring Quintanilla back.

Johan Santana has decided to have the surgery and will do so on Tuesday he will once again repair a torn anterior capsule in his pitching shoulder.

Tomorrow is not only opening day but Daniel Murphy’s birthday, yup he was born on April fool’s day :D To that end there will be a special Happy Birthday shout out song form the stands when he comes up for his first at bat. Wonder who organized that ;)

Speaking of April fool’s day what do you suppose those mischievous imps running this website have in mind to mess with us this year? :p
 
Yep sonny., so happy Opening Day is upon us tomorrow and both David Wright and Daniel Murphy are both in the lineup after their injuries made it uncertain.....but both seem healed well and no soreness when they play, just hoping Justin Turner won't need to be put on the retroactive injury list for his calf.

Hoping everything goes well for Johann Santana with his surgery and recovery....definitely would love to see him pitch again, not have his career end with shoulder surgery once again for that ligament. Won't see him as a Met pitch again so thank you so much Johann for your talent and professionalism... sometimes it's take so much for granted, an athlete's skills can be taken away any time though by a serious injury and there's nothing left but the old memories.Hopefully Johann willl be able to come back and make some great new memories with another club.

So no official platoons? Guessing though against certain left handers it will be kind of an unofficial rotation with Nieuwenhuis and Valdespin as you say getting some playing time.


Yep, it will be fun for everyone serenading Murph with Happy Birthday wishes....sonny, you gonna lead the festivities?:p

Happy Easter sonny and everyone, and welcome back,:D baseball!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:D

Click to expand...

He is feeling pretty good today my guess is he will be on the roster tomorrow and not the DL which would will send Lutz to Vegas.
 
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MURPH!!!

As expected Justin Turner will be active for today’s game, and to make room for him in the active roster, the Mets optioned Zach Lutz to AAA Vegas. Happy for JT, very happy

JT wasted no time getting his locker set



So yesterday I told you guys how happy the guys were to be back home and start the new season, well here is a bit of proof. It also shows what I said about what a funny dude PR man Jay Horwitz is.The guys just being goofy and havin some fun we got Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer, Woody from "Toy Story", Nemo from "Finding Nemo", Elvis, Grover, Sylvester the Cat and a Teletubby, and .David Wright and LaTroy Hawkins with their jerseys on backwards and New York Giants helmets on. Don’t miss Terry Collins reaction in the background thinking OH boy what am I in forb this season. What indeed Terry

 
Knew sonny couldn't resist a shout out to Daniel Murphy on his birthday!:D
Funny, funny video....Jay's got moves for an ole white guy:lol: Seriously though it 's a fun video with the Mets unique cartoon character costume take on the Harlem Shake... even looks like a cameo appearance by KB himself approvingly checking out the locker room goings on!;)

Loved the look on TC's face....and loved David Wright getting his groove on with LaTroy Hawkins to TC's amusement! These are like sonny says a very close group that has fun and has each other's back....they take the game seriously, not themselves and it makes for a relaxed clubhouse atmosphere to have some time for fun so long as it's not distracting from getting the job done and acting professionally when the games are going on.

Great day for a season opener...What a fun way to start the season off with a great 11-2 win over the San Diego Padres highlighted in the seventh by a grand slam homer banged off the left field wall divider by newcomer Collin Cowgill that was briefly thought to be a bases clearing triple but the rookie umpire closest to the play quickly made the grand slam call with no argument from the Padres bench. Jon Niese doing nearly seven strong innings allowing just two runs and helped by a very balanced offensive attack... birthday boy Daniel Murphy had two hits and an RBI, Cowgill also had a double and the captain David Wright had a hit, got on base by walks and stole two bases.Ruben Tejada who had a rough spring but said he would be ready for the regular season made good on that with a couple of key hits as well. Only blemish really was Ike Davis' unfortunate golden sombrero, striking out four times.... sure he is not pleased with his approach and will remedy that quickly.

So good to see a return to spring feel on the return to baseball too CitiField for a new season!:D
 
Very nice effort by our Mets on Opening Day!! I think all were involved except poor Ike, who had a horrible day with 4 K's. There will days when he will be needed to carry the team, so hopefully, he is saving it up for then. Niese pitched superbly, and the lineup produced. Was very happy to see Reuben Tejada get a couple of hits. The bullpen guys didn't mess around and put runners on or allow any sniff of a comeback. Of course the way Cowgill kabonged the grand slam was awesome. One in the win column, 161 to go! Let's go Mets!!
 
On second look, the guy I thought was KB looks like Jeff Wilpon...off day today but yep syam, never a bad time to say "Let's go Mets!"..|
 
Guess what? Philllies e-mail insiders (like me) are being offered half-price tickets to Tuesday's Phils-Mets game...

I'm getting over an Easter cold so I'll see how I feel.

What a nice start to the Mets season! And 3 homers last night, including one from Ike...wow.
 
Hope you get to go, Thad!:D Not so good Mets today.... great pitching from Dillon Gee giving up only a run in six plus innings and another homer by John Buck. But other than Buck's two hits including that homer and Justin Turner's three hits Mets did absolutely NOTHING at the plate. And so many strikeouts in the heart of the order...DWright and Duda three times, Ike and Marlon Byrd twice. Well, you can't go 162-0 but at least we won the opening season series.
