^[1]Just a note to let you know how to get your Mets-related baseball fix right now: move to Arizona.

That may sound extreme. But a number of Mets farmhands are playing for the Surprise Saguros, and it’s going to reach the 90s, with no humdity ^[2], all week there. So you really ought to consider it.

It’s early, but some standout Mets include Cesar Puello, with five hits in 14 at-bats plus a pair of steals, Darrell Ceciliani, who has homered, and pitcher Chase Huchingson, who already posted a pair of scoreless innings.

For those of you looking to go a bit further abroad in search of baseball, Wilmer Flores has five hits, including a home run, for Bravos de Margarita in Venezuela. Jeurys Familia will soon start for Gigantes del Cibao of the Domincan Republic. And Jordany Valdespin walked twice-TWICE!- in his first game for Tigres del Licey in the Dominican Republic’s winter league. Come for the baseball, stay for the swine and poultry production ^[3].

Alas, these trips aren’t in the budget for me, so my offseason fix  involves heavy doses of Baseball Mogul 2013 ^[4], which I cannot recommend highly enough.
