Mets Spring Training Photo Of The Day: Sandy Alderson

by Eric Simon on Feb 23, 2012 6:00 AM EST

While our photo catalog takes its time filling up on new photos, enjoy this one of Sandy Alderson surveying the baseball landscape in Port St. Lucie. Threatening to become a polymath with his recent entry into the Twitter landscape, Alderson (@MetsGM) answered some questions from Spring Training yesterday afternoon.

Of course, Alderson had the gall to ignore my pressing question:

@MetsGM If Jon Niese has a glorious season in 2012, will you issue an organizational injunction for roster-wide rhinoplasty?

.@NeRdO_0 Ike went to NY for some follow up on his physical.Nothing related to his ankle.Should be back & ready to go tomorrow.

.@tjraff Your reasoning is good but David is going to stay at 3B.
— Sandy Alderson (@MetsGM) February 22, 2012

.@TrippingOlney I might participate, but I'm not that funny.

.@MikeImp5 We don't track velocities for any pitcher this early in camp. And remember, his success is not dependent solely on velocity.

.@Mwienz15 OPS.High OBP and big power.He put on another show in BP today.

@WallStJesus @mlbdailydish Expect us to be a lot better than anyone outside this camp expects us to be.

.@MolsonMailman We'll see Kazmir for the first time Fri.We have an open mind but a spot on the ML staff right away is not realistic.
— Sandy Alderson (@MetsGM) February 22, 2012

.@KevKimick Turner will play everywhere in the IF and should get lots of playing time.

Forget Twitter- check out the squared away USMC style head gear sandy is wearing that photo. Hoorah! He knows how to kill 17 ways with his bare hands.

I think it's fine.
