pmLinks: Team Alomar, Confidence and Fonzi

In a post to Newsday, Mike Rose gives a quick recap of today’s intrasquad game in St. Lucie, during which Team Alomar won 7–5.

At Gotham Baseball Magazine, Mike Silva tells the Mets, “Don’t Tell Me, Show Me,’ with regards to the team’s spring-time confidence.

…i tend to agree with mike…i mean, wasn’t it over confidence that sort of got these guys in to trouble last summer…how about we table the confidence, and earn it with a nice long summer of winning…

Lastly, according to the Church of the Fonz, former-Mets 2B Edgardo Alfonzo has reported to Texas Rangers camp in hopes of returning to the major leagues for the first time since 2006.

In a post to Hot Foot, Matt Matros explains why tomorrow is the most anticipated spring training game in Mets history.

…thanks to Peter Wade for the link, and who wonders if the Mets could bring fonzi back if he is unable to make the Rangers…

…i doubt it, peter…first, this organization has so many second basemen, i’m starting to lose count…second, the Mets have had ample opportunities to bring back fonzi, even on a minor-league deal, knowing full well that he’d love to be here, and yet they have not brought him in…so, i have to believe the same would be the case again should the opportunity arise
