The Day After Terry Collins bad day

It is funny reading some of the news stories out there. Some writers actually think the Mets should have held on to Castillo since no one has really led the pack. Hysterical. From the same writers who have vilified the Mets for holding on to him. Castillo is a remnant of mistakes made in the Mets past. He was not going to fit in with Collins run through a wall mentality.

Castillo will now of course either sign with the Marlins or the Phils and hit a game winning home run against the Mets.  Cant wait for that and see what is written about it by the local scribes. 

Now the Mets still  have 4 2nd base guys in the running. I don't know why they didn't send Justin Turner down. Murphy and Emaus get the start today in 2 split squad games.

The Mets sent down Dillion Gee to Buffalo as one of the players that were cut on Terry Collins very bad day. Gee pitched well in mop up time last year when the Mets were going no where. The kid will be I am sure in the wings in case one of the Mets starters go down to injury. 

Mets starting lineup against the Nationals at home is  Reyes SS, Murphy 2B, Wright 3B, Bay LF, Hairston CF, Duda RF, Evans 1B, Thole C, Capuano LHP

Can you guess how many homers Jason Bay has this spring?
