Baseball's back in Florida. Here are some photos from the Mets spring training camp in Port St. Lucie, Florida.
Spending the day at Disney's World of Sports Complex where the Atlanta Braves position players report for Spring Training. Everything starts with stretching calisthenics. You never want to get hurt. But, that's especially true here when guys are trying to get a job. I even heard the trainer have a small meeting to tell players to hold on to the stretch-out straps because they will take an eye out. "That's all I got," he said. And the training began.
Atlanta Braves potentially had the best outfield in baseball Jason Heyward, and the newly acquired brothers B.J. and Justin Upton. What are the chances of two brothers playing together on the same MLB team. Only 20 pairs of brothers have ever done so. Sibling rivalry was alive and well. They had some sort of internal game going on. While they played catch B.J. was disputing a point that Justin was scoring. Funny guys.

Baseball's back in Florida. Here are some photos from the Mets spring training camp in Port St. Lucie, Florida.
Outfielder Ivan "Pudge" Rodriguez at Osceola County Stadium in Kissimmee, Florida.
Just (7) days after signing with the Astros, he is here in playing with his new team in the 2009 Spring Training against the Washington Nationals.
It's also (5) days since he last played with Team Puerto Rico and the disappointing loss against USA in the World Baseball Classic at Sun Life Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida.
The 2009 World Baseball Classic allowed "Pudge" to still showcase his talent and get a one year deal that would allow him to break the MLB all time record of most games played as a catcher.
