what do Mets junkies think of 2B-Nick Madrigal at pick#6, 21 years old, batted .380, perhaps a Jose Altuve clone. Could probably reach the majors in a year or two, giving us a real nice core of young position players in Smith/Alonso, Rosario, Madrigal, Conforto. I know this is so far off, but just been projecting out.
And he gave it up because his trainer told him to. Hysterical.

Kyle Schwarber... WOW. Talk about best shape of your life.. not a Cubs fan but THAT guy is taking his career seriously. PROPS.

Seems like a really good guy too. League is full of young stars (not that Schwarber is yet a star given his 2017) but I really don't understand how/why they do such a poor job promoting their players?
Not sure it's going to make him a better fielder, but it probably takes some pressure of his knees shedding all that weight.
I wonder if it impacts his power. Sure we've seen thin players with prodigious power like Strawberry and others, but part of me thinks Schwarber's power came from his bulk.

Peter Alonso at first base in Dom Smith's place. Smith says he is fine physically. Says it was the manager's call.

Yea considering his power was his biggest plus, will definitely be an interesting case study. He almost looks as thin as Wright.

Ive always enjoyed the Tim Tebow project, but refusing to be interviewed is not cool. Being a prospect in the major league clubhouse means talking with media. Everyone else does it. #Mets

Dom Smith just was called into Callaways office, quick meeting and back
If it is due to being late, good move. Very casual spring so far all around, so sends right message. No clue if its true or not though.
