Jerry Manuel already leaving a stamp in his first Mets spring training

The games have not even started yet. The first game is not until Wednesday and we already see how Jerry Manuel is leaving his mark on his first Mets camp.

Inspiring address with team- New Met J J Putz said it was the best address he ever heard to start spring training camp.

New tvs in clubhouse.- Showing Mets game wining hits among other positive things the Mets did last year

Jose Reyes- Moving down in the lineup . Possibly batting 3rd.


New batting regimen 80 swings in 6 minutes all to the opposite field. Promoting situational hittng. Manuel has been promoting team work. No I in team.

Already addressed the left field platoon. Murphy left fielder. Tatis will backup Church and Wright at 3rd.

Some have mentioned it is for the media so they do not have to hit up the Mets about the September collapse. This of course is interesting but not the reason.

This is Manuel’s club now and this is his version of spring training. He is doing his best to address the Mets mistakes of the past and his mistakes he made last year and his first go around as manager as the White Sox.

Go Gansta!
