'twasn't a bad day at all...
METS: today, the Mets had the day off. there is mild concern about El Duque and his effectiveness. apparently, the Mets pitcher has been throwing high 70's, changed his high kick windup and is having problems with location. the Mets website wrote: "A scout who had attended to watch "opposing" pitcher Mike Pelfrey, as much as to see El Duque, suggested half of his (El Duque's) time had been wasted, and likened Hernandez's innings to slow-pitch softball. The absence of velocity was that conspicuous." but let's not forget: "...When El Duque was between employers in late February of 2004, he conducted an audition in Coral Gables, Fla., throwing for the Yankees some nine months after he had undergone elbow surgery. The Yankees weren't sufficiently impressed at first, but re-signed him. Four years later, he has won 48 games and one World Series ring. He's been fooling a lot of people." word!
