Marty Noble at MLB.com reports on the Mets bullpen, including Billy Wagner and his addition of the split-finger fastball to his repertoire.
Noble notes: "Wagner is working on developing a split-finger fastball, a pitch
designed to complement his normal four-seam fastball and, more to the
point, enable him to reach the end of the season -- whenever that might
be -- with fuel still in his tank." "With an expression of consternation, Wagner acknowledged on Wednesday that 'I had nothing left when we went to St. Louis.'"

In an article for Newsday, David Lennon discusses, amongst other things, Moises Alou's secret for keeping fit:
 "Alou doesn't credit any miracle diet or magic elixir for his
ability to remain one of the game's most accomplished hitters at the
age of 40. He doesn't scarf down egg whites by the dozens like Julio
Franco. Or run beyond the brink of exhaustion like Orlando Hernandez.""His secret? Alou counts the calories on the side of a 12-ounce can." "'I drink light beer.' he said." You and me both Moises.

Hats Off To Ya

The Associated Press reports that on Opening Day, MLB will replace the traditional wool cap in favor
of a new polyester blend model designed to wick away sweat before it
can stream down a player's face.
The key is the new cap's ability to absorb sweat so that it can quickly evaporate. This is the first major overhaul of the baseball cap since the current six-panel model was adopted in 1954. Glad to see those salty, sweat lines go away. |
