Beckett injured? Wow this is the first im hearing of it.

EDIT:: Well i just found out that its only back spasms, and he should be fine for opening day. Although the Red Sox have said they will not rush him back even if he misses opening day. There is no time table on when he is to return. They are just callin it day to day right now.

Well I'm usually watching ESPN at from 1 am to about 4/5 am PST, so I get news that you miss when you're asleep.

Did anyone see Billy Crystal suit up for the Yanks today? Wow that was something. For those that dont know, he signed a 1 day deal with the Yanks so he can play for his 60th B-day. He lead off the game, his at bat wasnt to bad 2nd pitch thrown to him he fouled off. After gettin it to a full count he struck out. But hell i give him a lot of credit just to make contact goin against a major league pitcher at his age. You can check it out at MLB.com.

I've always liked Billy Crystal. Too bad he is a Yankee fan though.

yea although he was wearing a Met hat in the movie City Slickers.

Yeah that is interesting.

So much for it being only back spasms...

He's to be put on the 15 day DL, and won't even be on the active roster for opening day. Weaksauce. Not too much longer until the Red Sox and A's kick off the season.

It is better this happened at the beginning of the season versus waiting until September for this to come to the surface.

As for my bit of news, no news is good news on Prior, seems to be rehabbing well and has been throwing bull-pen every other day. He said he hopes to be back in the rotation late May, early June, which would be fine by me.

Wow, what a game last night. The Nationals opened up with a bang, Ryan Zimmerman delivers the walk off homer in their new ballpark, which I must admit is a really nice looking place!!! Great game, especially when you're a Mets fan...

Now on to the Mets season opener as Johan Santana take the mound!!!

oh yea i was lovin last nights game. The new ball park does look nice, but i cant wait till 5:00pm when Johan will take the mound. Gonna be a great season!

I can't wait til Santana takes the mound either.


GO MARLINS!!!

Anyone else see how well Verlander was pitching until he made the one mistake and gave up the 2 run homerun to Gordon? Also the Detroit lineup is ridiculous, dangerous up and down the lineup in one way or another.

Cubs game just got started after a 41 minute delay. Big Z is pitching pretty well.

Yankees/Blue Jays postponed until tomorrow, due to rain.

Padres home opener tonight at 7:05 pst against the Astros, I'm anxious to see how well Peavy's stuff is going to be.

I say its an Omen. Babe doesn't want the Yanks to leave his house.

thats funny..

Havent seen any of todays games yet cuz im stuck at work...Gonna miss the 1st hour of the Met game also, damn that upsets me

I know how that is

Ballgame over!!! Mets win it 7-2. Reyes, Pagan & Church with an RBI each, Wright with a bases clearing double, & Marlon Anderson scores on what I think was a bad throw from Matt Treanor.

Santana with a great debut!!!
7 IP, 3 H, 2 ER, 2 BB, 8 K.

Wise got into a little bit of trouble when he came on after Santana, but Schoeneweis & Sosa bailed him out & Heilman pitched a 1-2-3 9th inning.

Pedro on to pitch tomorrow's game, it's so good to have Santana & so good to have Pedro back!!!
