My favorite line: “Heck yes, we miss Francoeur”
Still, I’d prefer these guys to Kuff and the Buttheads every day of the week.

Here is the Mets 2010 promotional video…
What do you think?
(I’ll be in NYC all day. Hopefully I don’t freeze!)
According to various reports, the Mets have claimed Jay Marshall, a lefthand pitcher, off waivers from Oakland. As you can tell by this photo, Marshall is a sidearm pitcher, dropping his arm below his shoulder. See other photos here.
Marshall, 26, went 0-2 in 7 1-3 innings last season with Oakland. He posted a 14.73 ERA and 1.773 WHIP. He struck out one, walked none and surrendered one home run.
In 50 2-3 innings in Triple-A last season, he posted a 3.20 ERA and 1.342 WHIP. He struck out 30 and walked 15.
Enjoy Buffalo, Jay.
Also, he has a beard.
The Final Four is set for the 2009 Met of the Year.
Two one-seeds and two six-seeds. A starting pitcher, the ace of the staff. The third baseman, the face of the franchise. And two center fielders, one, a backup who filled in during an injury plagued season and the other, the All-Star who missed half the year due to a bone bruise.
David Wright will take on Carlos Beltran
and
Johan Santana will take on Angel Pagan.
Voting resumes on Monday.
Here is Ken Davidoff’s story (paid).
And here is a story from Stalking Steve Phillips, who was also at Alomar’s home.
Yesterday’s winner: Johan Santana with 74 percent of the vote.
He will take on the winner of today’s matchup.
This post, in no way, is what I want the Mets to do. This is, rather, a guess as to what they will do and what the lineup will look like on opening day.
What do you think the Opening Day lineup will look on April 5 at Citi Field?
I suggest you read through these. Some of them make me shake my head. Not that I didn’t think they were true, but that they’re already creating a fallback if this (or many other things) fails.
Why say these out loud, to a reporter? I don’t get it.

Voting ends tomorrow at 10 a.m.
Yesterday’s winner: With 57 percent of the vote, six-seed Carlos Beltran advances to the Final Four.
Beltran and David Wright (1) will face off in the Seaver Division Final Four.
