In a live bullpen session today, new Mets' ace
Johan Santana gave up a bomb to some guy named Salomon Eduardo Manriquez. In fact, Manriquez played Winter Ball with Santana in 2002, and is now one of 5 Venezuelan players (Santana is Venezuelan too) at Mets camp.
For Santana this was a typical day that will be like many other typical days in camp. Live bullpens are the way of Spring Training, for pitchers, well pens and PFPs (pitcher-fielder-practice). How regular was today? Manager Willie Randolph didnt even watch.
