Thanks to several emails, eyewitness accounts and comments over the last few days I’ve been alerted to updates with the Mets’ spring training roster, and rather than continually update the one below I’ll publish a new one here.<\/p>\n
The interesting change is\u00a0Alex Cora<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Cory Sullivan<\/strong>\u00a0having switched the 12 and 3 jerseys, respectively. I think in a general sense that’s how it should be: The infielders in single-digits and the outfielders not, at least where you can help it. This really wasn’t a switch so much as an adjustment from the paper numbers they were assigned.<\/p>\n Looks like, without Pedro coming to town, 45 could go to whichever pitcher now in the high 50s or low 60s makes the squad, and\/or to\u00a0Tony Armas<\/strong>\u00a0who I understand may be late arriving due to visa problems.<\/p>\n Still need the uni numbers for the coaches whenever they roll in, but we have a good idea where they will fit in.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 1 Luis Castillo, 2B<\/p>\n 2 Sandy Alomar Sr. (coach)<\/p>\n 3\u00a0Alex Cora, INF<\/strong><\/p>\n — switched from Sullivan<\/p>\n 4 Robinson Cancel, C<\/p>\n 5 David Wright, 3B<\/p>\n 6 Nick Evans, OF<\/p>\n 7 Jose Reyes, SS<\/p>\n 8 Vacant (Carter)<\/p>\n 9 Marlon Anderson<\/p>\n 10 Andy Green, INF<\/p>\n 11 Ramon Castro, C<\/p>\n 12\u00a0Cory Sullivan, OF<\/strong><\/p>\n — Was assigned to Cora initially<\/p>\n 13 Billy Wagner, P<\/p>\n 14 Retired (Gil Hodes)<\/p>\n 15 Carlos Beltran, OF<\/p>\n 16 Angel Pagan, OF<\/p>\n 17 Fernando Tatis<\/p>\n 18 Jeremy Reed, OF<\/p>\n 19 Ryan Church, OF<\/p>\n 20 Howard Johnson, coach<\/p>\n 21 Carlos Delgado, 1B<\/p>\n 22 JJ Putz, RP<\/p>\n 23 Brian Schneider, C<\/p>\n 24 Vacant (Mays)<\/p>\n 25 Pedro Feliciano, P<\/p>\n 26 Rob Mackowiak, OF<\/p>\n 27 Nelson Figueroa, P<\/p>\n 28 Daniel Murphy, OF<\/p>\n 29\u00a0<\/strong>Connor Robertson, P<\/p>\n 30 Rocky Cherry, P<\/p>\n 31 Vacant (Piazza)<\/p>\n 32 Carlos Muniz, P<\/p>\n 33 John Maine, P<\/p>\n 34 Mike Pelfrey, P<\/p>\n 35 Brandon Knight, P<\/p>\n 36 Darren O’Day, P<\/p>\n 37 Retired (Stengel)<\/p>\n 38 Tom Martin, P<\/p>\n 39 Bobby Parnell, P<\/p>\n 40 Eddie Kunz, P<\/p>\n 41 Retired (Seaver)<\/p>\n 42 Retired (Robinson)<\/p>\n 43 Brian Stokes, P<\/p>\n 44\u00a0<\/strong>Tim Redding, P<\/strong><\/p>\n 45 Vacant<\/p>\n 46 Oliver Perez, P<\/p>\n 47 Casey Fossum, P<\/p>\n 48 Sean Green, P<\/p>\n 49 Jonathon Niese, P<\/p>\n 50 Duaner Sanchez, P<\/p>\n 51 Luis Alicea, coach<\/strong><\/p>\n 52 Razor Shines, coach<\/strong><\/p>\n 53 Jerry Manuel, Manager<\/p>\n 54 Dave Racianello, bullpen catcher<\/p>\n 55 Randy Niemann, coach<\/strong><\/p>\n 56 Freddy Garcia, P<\/p>\n 57 Johan Santana, P<\/p>\n 58 Sandy Alomar Jr., coach<\/p>\n 59 Dan Warthen, coach<\/p>\n 60\u00a0Valerio De Los Santos, P<\/strong><\/p>\n 61\u00a0Livan Hernandez, P<\/strong><\/p>\n 62\u00a0Bobby Keilty, OF<\/strong><\/p>\n 63\u00a0Michel Abreu, 1B<\/strong><\/p>\n 64\u00a0Elmer Dessens, P<\/strong><\/p>\n 65 Kyle Snyder, P<\/p>\n 66 Matt DeSalvo, P<\/p>\n 67 Fernando Martinez, OF<\/p>\n 68 Heriberto Ruelas, P<\/p>\n 69 Vacant (according to MBTN contributor Jason, this number is retired in honor of the 1969 World Champions but probably also to save unnecessary clubhouse and bleacher abuse)<\/p>\n 70\u00a0Jon Switzer, P<\/strong><\/p>\n 71\u00a0Toby Stoner, P<\/strong><\/p>\n 72\u00a0Adam Bostick, P<\/strong><\/p>\n 73\u00a0Dillon Gee, P<\/strong><\/p>\n 74\u00a0Michael Antonini, P<\/strong><\/p>\n 75 Francisco Rodriguez, P<\/p>\n 76 Omir Santos, C<\/p>\n 77 Rene Rivera, C<\/p>\n 78 Josh Thole, C<\/p>\n 79 Jose Coronado, INF<\/p>\n **<\/p>\n 90 Ramon Martinez, INF<\/strong><\/p>\n 91 Tony Armas, P<\/strong><\/p>\n 99 Jose Valentin, 2B<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Thanks to several emails, eyewitness accounts and comments over the last few days I’ve been alerted to updates with the Mets’ spring training roster, and rather than continually update the one below I’ll publish a new one here.
