Everyone knows its 867-5309, but Charlie Samuels couldn't fit it on his jersey. Jenrry’s number isn’t 76 anyway. Everyone knows its 867-5309, but Charlie Samuels couldn’t fit it on his jersey.

File that under fat lot of good in 2010. They do have a practice field that mimics Citi Field's measurements, but as Alan Iverson memorably reminded us, we're talking about practice.

Don't you think the Mets should request that Tradition Field be altered to more closely resemble the dimensions at Citi? It would help them execute their game-plan as much as any other spring training exercise. Didn’t see yesterday’s home run. Did it really have not only the distance but the height to clear the wall?

But he hit one yesterday over the left-field wall that needs no asterisk. I think Wright will be fine and we'll have a more-nuanced view of CF's effect on homers after this year. But we'll see....
