The Astros came to camp yesterday and so did the Grandy Man. It was a pretty great day to get excited about Curtis Granderson and Wheeler as the Mets beat the Astros 6-2 and won their second game in a row. Anyway, some perspective:
The Optimistic Mets Fan Saw:
- Curtis Granderson smack two homeruns
- Wheeler pitch 3 innings, allow two hits, no walks, no runs and strikeout 3
- Eric Young Jr. get into a game this year, went 0-2, but walked and scored a run. OBP of .333
- Chris Young 1-3, R, 2B, RBI
- d’Arnaud with two hits on the day
- Farnsworth with a clean inning
- Black walked three, but didn’t allow any runs
The Pessimistic Mets Fan Saw:
- Curtis Granderson not hit any opposite field homers. Tell this Mets fan to shush.
- Black walk three, this Mets fan will ignore the getting out of the inning part
- Allen 1-5 on the day, .111 BA in the Spring
- Satin 0-2, .200 in the Spring
- Teagarden 0-2, 2 K, .167 BA on the spring
The Future Oriented Mets Fan knows the Mets are playing two games today with a split squad. Dillon Gee starts against the Marlins at home (PSL). Mejia gets his first start of the Spring at Space Coast against the Nationals
