Mack Ade - Brian... let me guess... St. Lucie
OD?
Brian Harrison - Mack- I don't know for sure but I'm hoping to get a chance
to get a lot of at bats somewhere and continue to improve on my overall game
This is a seriously
good guy that also happens to have graduated from the same school my daughter
went to. He played Savannah in 2012 (.241) and almost turned it loose a couple
of times. Started in the organization at third, but now has settled into 1B.
It’s either him or Cole Frenzel in St. Lucie next month.
Heard from Rainy Lara:
Lara – Hi, Mack
Mack - Hey Rainy... my guess is you
and I will be seeing each other in Savannah next month.
Lara – Maybe
This is the most you are getting out a minor leaguer with
four weeks to go in camp. Frankly, they aren’t told where they are going until
the day before they leave Lucy. Trust me, he’ll be here in Savannah with most
of his old Cyclone rotation that led the league with the lowest ERA and WHIP.
Lara is
6-4, 180 and needs to put some meat on. 8-3, 2.91, in 12 starts with a 0.96
WHIP. 77-Ks in 68.0-IP. Good stuff.
Savannnah’s rotation projects out as some combination of
guys like Lara, Gabriel Ynoa, Steven Matz, Luis Cessa, Julian Hilario , John
Gant, Miller Diaz, and Alex Panteliodes.
Randy asked -
Mack: With the outfield so sad why don't Alderson make a pitch to
the Pirates for Jerry Sands to play OF. Don't
think he is in their immediate plans for now.
Mack - A 24-yr old righthanded
hitting outfielder that had 26-HR and 107-RBI in AAA last season? Nah…
First thing, it takes two parties to make a deal and I’m
not sure the Mets are dealing right now. There’s an awful lot of tension right
now in camp (Santana-Alderson fight, Adam Rubin article) and the team is
playing really bad). Alderson has let it known a number of times that he is
done adding outsiders to the mix, even though the combo of Mike Baxter, Kirk
Nieuwenhuis, Andrew Brown, Lucas Duda, Juan Lagares, Jamie Hoffman, and Matt den Dekker is 13-94.
Secondly, Chicago remains targets at first getting Alfonso Soriano off their roster which
could open a slot for Sands.
No, sadly for Mets fans, this is the team you are going to
have to root for in 2013.

Kirk Nieuwenhuis says knee feels about same as yesterday going to doctor for
tests at 10 am. MRI
This may actually turn out to be a good thing for the
Captain. He was off to a horrible start this spring and was probably headed to
Las Vegas as part of a visible demotion. This way, it looks like a rehab
assignment and he can pay next to Matt den Dekker and get both his knee and head back in the
game.

Mack,
It has been updated that Kirk was diagnosed with only a bone bruise in his left knee.
He'll let it rest for a week or so and then get back on the field. He don't a bullet this time.
