Took forever to get into the staduim --- like a late summer night at Shea. I'm a Spring Traning novice and didn't expect a sell out. Lot's of Indian fans in attendance and most left early. Must have been past their bed time. Good pitching. Bad Cleveland defense = Mets win. Mets offense needs a boost. Pagan looked overmatched. I was out on the berm in RF and twice a Sr. Citizen Mets fan had trouble walking up from the steep incline. They should have a handcapped area out there or post some signs. The face value of the ticket was $6 but I actually paid another $8 in fees! That's just deceptive business practices. I picked up my tickets at will call and still had to pay all the fees. It's CHEAPER to sell on the internet because the team doesn't have to pay someone to answer the phone. This is a major rip off and consumers ought to press to outlaw "hidden" fees like this. The list price should be the final price, period. I was at the game tonight, full house in St. Lucie. Took forever to get into the staduim — like a late summer night at Shea.

But If he's equal to last year its more likely to be 3 shutouts and 4 clunkers. I'm with you on the marginally better expectation. And if he takes little steps up each year he will be about as good a #2 starter as you can have by the time he reaches free agency.

The info above was basic recap info. I dont find it necessary to give any credit. Its like crediting gameday as a source, or a box score. Its no writing, its fact relaying. the info was from two sources

About 8 innings, no runs, a bunch of K's and I agree on the other end, excluding clunkers, which everyone will have. I don't see him getting THAT much better, but he'll improve. I think just his mindsight will help that along with his offspeed stuff, which really looks better this year. i think he’ll improve, I think his best games will look like his no-hit bid he gave us late last year.
