Over the past few weeks, the battles for who will play what and when for the Amazin's were being set up, and tomorrow begins the real fighting. Tomorrow at 1, the Mets will take on the Braves and players will start to get their chance. Clear cut starters will start to get their work in, some players will be presented with a great opportunity and others will get sent down to Minors camp. In years past we have seen surprise players shine in March. Last year it was Murphy and Parnell. Other players like Joe Smith made themselves in Spring. Its a big deal.
Here are some of the larger battles shaping up:
Who will play first?
Which Catching Pair will go to Queens? (More of a question before the signing of Barajas)
Who will be the fifth starter?
Who will be Set-up Man? (Parnell? Igarashi? Green?)
Will their be a suprise Bullpen Pitcher?
Who will be on the bench?
And then their are questions like:
How will Perez do?
Will Wright have power?
How will Green's new delivery work?
Will Ike Davis wow us?
How wild is Meija?
Baseball games start tomorrow!
