the woman responsible for making me a Mets fan...my awesome momma!

ME: so today, yes, i was hungover as hell...it was horrible. i felt sea-sick and wanted so badly to just stay in bed and not move. alas, i have a job to do in making resumes and, reluctantly, got up and on the train. the day went so slowly and i made a ton of trips to the bathroom (TMI, i know). but, i somehow got all the work done that i needed to, left at 6 and went to Becky's mom's to hang and have a pizza party! yay! i think when we get home, i'ma clean up and then watch movies and tv all night! yay!

METS: today Pedro threw a simulation game to the delight of Mets top brass. he threw the equivalent of 2 innings, facing Endy Chavez, Easley and two minor leaguers. owner, Fred Wilpon brought along some pals to watch Pedro throw; Wright and others including new hire, Santana watched as well. all eyes on Pedro and everyone, including Pedro, seemed pleased. Chavez commented that Martinez' velocity was better than in September. Pedro felt his curveball was "asi asi" ("so so" in Spanish). the Mets played the Indians today and won 8-6. Perez started and got roughed up-giving up 6 runs and 6 hits in only 2 2/3 innings of work. Angel Pagan had another good game, going 2-4 with a run scored. Nelson Figueroa, vying for a log reliever spot, did well pitching three scoreless innings and striking out two. Olmedo Saenz, a new Mets kid on the block, played DH today and went 2-4 with 2 runs scored and 2 rbi. he belted a home run off Betancourt. Another home run was hit by yet another Met sub named Robinson Cancel. he played first base effectively in place of the injured Abreu and Delgado. this weekend's Mets spring training games will be televised on WPIX (channel 11 in NY). the Mets are presently 6-3-1 this spring and essentially making do with the great subs and rookies, looking to make a difference this year at Shea.
