Links: NL, First Pitch, Pedro and 1969

Tyler Kepner of the New York Times writes a preview of the National League, pointing out, “The Phillies lost no games they led after eight innings last season, and the Mets lost seven.”

The Brooklyn Met Fan explains why the Mets should ask David Wright, Edgardo Alfonzo, Keith Hernandez and Ed Kranepool to join Mike Piazza and Tom Seaver in throwing out the first pitch in Citi Field.

According to the Washington Post, free-agent Pedro Martinez is still insisting on a one-year, $6 million contract.

Ed from Mets Fever says, “Pedro doesn’t get it.”

or, we don’t get it, in that he wants to pitch, but not as much as we want him to pitch, all while accepting a deal less than what he’s asking… and that’s that

Lastly, Newsday is looking for fans to contact them with memories of the Mets and the summer of 1969.
