    Pretty certain the 2018 AAA team would beat the 2012 Astros.

    It sucks for whoever is pitching for the Mets in the early innings today.

    Especially with Syndergaard as SP for NYM. Too bad it's so early in ST and will only be 2 IP.

    Pitching has looked very very sharp so far.

    Verlander was awesome. Syndergaard was throwing 101 and a 92 mph changeup. Crazy.

    When he's healthy, Syndergaard's as good as any pitcher in the league. Absolutely electric stuff.

    No doubt. But throwing 101 in spring training....is that really the best for your arm in staying healthy?

    JD Davis with his 2nd bomb of the spring.

    I like the idea of him making the team with his versatility. The ability to pitch as well can't be a negative.
