Looks like there will be a baseball game tonight at Citizens Bank Park. What a novel idea. The tarp is off, the field is dry, and I even spotted a few blue cracks in the dense cloud cover. The wind here is wicked though, and it appears to be blowing to rightfield. Maybe Carlos Delgado can snap his streak of 45 at-bats without a home run so far this season.
Both the Mets and Phillies have been idle since Saturday, so it will be interesting to see how the teams handle their longest layoff since spring training began.
"We'll just have to roll with it," manager Willie Randolph said. "In another week, we won't even be thinking about it."
The temperature is 46 degrees, but with wind gusts of 31 mph, it feels more like 38.

come on met fans, let's post just a little bit please! let's go mets!
Mets three more double plays, playing aggressive, bullpen becoming a lethal force.
Valentin must step up or Omar will make a deal.
But a major selling point for Valentin is he is "always" smack dab in the middle of some brilliant defense.
Valentin is making Kaz Matsui look like William Hung on Soul Train.
