Sanchez throwing

February

Watching Duaner Sanchez throw in the bullpen by the back field. All eyes on him, from Fred Wilpon to Omar Minaya to Rick Peterson to Willie Randolph. Nobody else is throwing nearby. All eyes on Sanchez. He’s smiling, so there’s no sign of discomfort.

It’s obvious he’ll be one of the more important Mets this year.

That must be one mighty sour grapefruit Duaner’s got there.

John, how does his velocity look?

I anticipated the Mets to have one of the best bullpens in the majors last year. Injuries really burst that bubble.

No pressure Duaner; no pressure at all. :)

Wow, if that’s a recent picture then Duaner looks like he’s in great shape.

Yep, him, Delgado, and Pedro are the guys this team will need to be a true contender for the World Series this year.

I think poor Duaner was put on a starvation diet.

Pedro’s got him on the 2 Advil, coffee, mango and egg diet.

Let’s hope his command is there to go along w/the velocity.

Having Schoenweis Mota and Sele last year burst that bubble, not injuries. Stink stank and stunk, y’know?

They built the bully last year in the “was” instead of the “is”.

Wags Heilman Feliciano and Sanchez with Sosa as the long-man is a hell of a start for a bullpen.

If Horror Show can be stuck in a corner to rot… and Padilla or Smith or Wise steps up to the plate as simply acceptable, that is an awesome bullpen.

The Mets might only have four legitimate hitters (and only two of them legitimately healthy) but with a little luck, we got horses up and down pitching-wise.

what?!?

pls name the 4 legit hitters and the 2 healthy ones.
