(by Dan Canfield Berman)I got a chance to witness warm-ups this morning before the Marlins game. Carlos Beltran and Louis Castillo both were doing some light stretching and running, but nothing too heavy.
Florida 12 Mets 4
The focal point seemed to revolve around how many position players would play in today's game. The fans got answers as Jose Reyes, David Wright, Ryan Church, and Brian Schneider got significant playing time. Duaner Sanchez also made a relief appearance in the 7th inning after not pitching for a week.
Wright looked better defensively after taking some really bad hops. He also added a single early in the game. Reyes went 0-4 at the plate as he was relieved late in the game by Jesus Feliciano.
Ryan Church made his first appearance after the concussion he suffered last week. He went 2-2, with two singles. Fellow former Nationals catcher Brian Schneider homered in the second inning to give the Mets their first run of the game.
Duaner Sanchez continues to battle back after an injury plagued 2007 season. In his one inning of relief today, he struck out and walked a batter, while only facing four batters.
The next spring training update will come Monday. Until then...
