Mets make first Roster Cuts of Spring

Tim Healey Newsday: Meet Joe Suozzi, son of congressman Tom, a Mets minor-leaguer with major heart. “'It’s been an advantage because I’ve been in these spots my whole career, dating back from high school, so I kind of understand what I need to do and how I need to learn at every level,' Suozzi, who was unrecruited out of high school, said recently after a Mets spring-training game. 'It’s tough not being a prospect. But I’ve been here twice already, so it makes it a lot easier. I’ve been lucky to have those things happen'...On the field, last season was Suozzi’s best, with his OPS improving each time they bumped him up a level: .683 with High-A Brooklyn to .739 with Double-A Binghamton to .767 with Triple-A Syracuse."
