Following today’s intrasquad game, Jerry Manuel told reporters Johan Santana’s first start of the spring will probably be March 9.

During today’s game, Jose Reyes hit a two-run triple on the first pitch, of his first at bat.

To hear audio of Reyes’s post-game comments, go to Brian Costa’s blog for the Star-Ledger.

According to SNY producer Matt Dunn, Reyes said was not running full speed on the triple, and so he is encouraged because it means he has ‘more speed in the tank,’ so to speak.

Manuel jokingly said Jason Bay did not start today because he needed to rest after celebrating Canada’s Gold Medal in Hockey, so Bay will start tomorrow instead.

The following are photographs I took during today’s game.
