The Mets lost to the Tigers today in Lakeland 4-2. Mike Pelfrey pitched two solid innings in the start. I don’t pay too much attention to the final scores in spring training, but I do pay attention to individual performances. I really want to see Pelfrey give El Duque some competition for the fifth spot [...]
