SLACKISH REACTION: Quiet morning despite the newspapers trying to fill space. Lots of discussion around this Harvey thing I linked to.
Every day there is more and more Mickey Callaway Propoganda. The media must really like this guy. Today’s propaganda is about how he’s modernizing the Mets. (And let’s not forget that Sharkgate got a free pass). At this point I neither like nor dislike the guy as I haven’t met him or seen him manage, but I do notice the daily Mickey Is God articles. I hope he is awesome, groovy, and wins 10 rings. But take the foot off the gas PR machine. And spellcheck wants him to be Mickey Hallway.
CAN I WATCH TODAY’S GAME? Usually the day before games begin they do an intrasquad game. The last few years they have streamed those via high cam on Mets.com or Facebook/Twitter. I haven’t seen anything about it but will keep an eye out. That cam gets really boring fast though.

Wheeler and 8 other people are scheduled to pitch Friday (just like the regular season!). Lugo and others on Saturday. And the Gazelle Man goes Sunday.
The Mets announced a “BP Pullover” giveaway for June 2. 15,000 only. Not sure what happened to the 25,000 they promised at QBC. I may have to make a call to Flushing but I am so lazy.
NOT LINKING: The newspaper says the division looks weak. The other newspaper has more Mickey Propaganda. He is modernizing the Mets! Official MLB tells us the Mets have lots of relievers! The other other newspaper tells us Rosario is excited!
