JetBlue pilot’s familysays he meant no harm

Family of pilot who was subdued by passengers onflight asks for privacy Capt. Clayton Osbon stillundergoing medical treatment in Texas After beingcharged, faces possible $250,000 fine and time in jailThe wife of JetBlue AirwaysCapt. Clayton Osbon, whowas subdued by passengerswhile his plane was in flightlast week, said the family isdeclining interviews, andthey don’t believe he intend-ed to hurt anyone.

Connye Osbon asked themedia to respect its privacy

and said thefamily won’tbe grantingany inter-views or mak-ing any fur-ther publiccomments, ac-

cording to the statement re-leased yesterday by JetBlueon the family’s behalf.

“We would like to recog-nize the crew and passengersof Flight 191 for their effec-tive yet compassionate han-

dling of the situation,” thefamily’s statement said. “It isour belief, as Clayton’s fami-ly, that while he was clearlydistressed, he was not inten-tionally violent toward any-one. We know you wereplaced in an awful situationand we appreciate your abili-ty to respond professionally.”

The captain began actingerratically during a flight thatdeparted from JFK Airport onMarch 27. Osbon was lockedout of the cockpit by his co-

pilot as the plane, JetBlueFlight 191, was diverted toTexas.

Osbon, 49, was tackledand sat upon by passengerswhen he tried to re-enter thecockpit after briefly steppingout, the company and federalofficials said. An off-duty pi-lot, who had entered thecockpit while Osbon wasgone, helped land the Las Ve-gas-bound flight in Amarillo,Texas.

Right now, Osbon is beingevaluated and treated atNorthwest Texas HealthcareSystem hospital in Amarillo.He faces as many as 20 yearsin prison after being chargedwith interfering with theplane’s flight crew, U.S. Attor-ney Sarah R. Saldana said in astatement last week.BLOOMBERG

‘Leap ofFaith’ soughtOsbon turned off theplane’s radios, dimmedhis monitors and toldthe first officer on boardthat “we need to take aleap of faith,” accordingto court documents. Af-ter the plane left JFK, Os-bon “started trying tocorrelate completely un-related numbers like dif-ferent radio frequencies,and he talked about sinsin Las Vegas,” accordingto court filings. “At somepoint, Osbon told thefirst officer, ‘We’re notgoing to Vegas.’” Accord-ing to reports, Osbon'sfather died in a planecrash in 1995. RonaldOsbon died while pilot-ing a small personalplane en route toDaytona Beach, Fla. Os-bon reported losingpower on both enginesjust before the crash.

Cracking down on textmessage ‘cramming’Those unwanted “joke of theday” or celebrity gossip textmessages are certainly annoy-ing. But what New Yorkersmay not know is that they canbe costly, too.

The practice is known as“cramming,” and it’s whenthird parties inundate thou-sands of cell phone numberswith silly information sent viatext. Except some people arelater billed for those text mes-sages, in charges that show uplabeled as “service fee,” “otherfees,” “voicemail,” “callingplan” or other vague terms.

“No one should be able toput a charge on your cellphone bill unless you have giv-en explicit consent,” said U.S.Senator Charles Schumer,who is calling on wireless car-riers to fix the increasinglycommon problem. “Cellphone bills nowadays can bedozens of pages long — and ifyou don’t pay close attention,buried in your bill somewherecould be a $10 charge you nev-er authorized or mistakenlyagreed to by replying to an un-solicited text.”

But you can still be charged

even if you ignore such a textmessage.

One New York City man re-cently received text messageswith random information,

such as, “Flamingos are pinkbecause they eat shrimp.” Hethen got a follow-up text thatstated he could end the both-ersome messages by texting“STOP.”

The man didn’t reply out offear he would only get morespam. But nonetheless he latergot a suspicious charge on hismonthly bill for $9.99 for“ringtone.”

Schumer is calling on carri-ers like Verizon and AT&T tovoluntarily prohibit third-par-ty billing if customers do notexplicitly say they want suchservices.

It’s an onerous process todispute the charges, and it’sone cell phone users should-n’t have to go through, saidSchumer. Specifically,Schumer said he wants theFederal CommunicationsCommission to require wire-less carriers get affirmativeconsent from consumers forany third-party charge — be-fore it winds up at the bot-tom of a bill.

Toxic tofu suspected in botulism outbreakOne person remains hospital-ized after a rare outbreak ofbotulism in New York City, ac-cording to the health depart-ment, which is investigating apossible tofu link to the illness.

Two people contracted theserious disease after buying to-fu from the same store inFlushing, according to healthofficials. One of the two whobecame ill was released fromthe hospital during the week-end, but the other person re-mains under medical care, acity Department of Healthspokeswoman told Metro.

Both patients are Chinese-speaking Queens residentsand had recently purchasedfresh bulk tofu, which sat outat room temperature at thestore. That kind of tofu is com-monly sold in an open, water-filled bin, and is often madeinto a popular Chinese dishknown as fermented or“stinky” tofu.

Officials say the tofu soldwas not made at the store, andthey are currently trying to de-termine where it was madeand how it was distributed.

Caused by an extremely po-tent toxin, botulism is a veryrare but serious foodborne ill-

ness. The last time a case wasreported in New York City was15 years ago, say health offi-cials.

The toxin affects the body’snervous system, and symp-toms include blurred or dou-ble vision, weakness or paraly-sis, poor reflexes, difficultyswallowing and speaking, anddifficulty breathing.

Symptoms of foodbornebotulism usually occur 12 to36 hours after ingestion, butmay take several days. If leftuntreated, botulism can be fa-tal.

As the investigation contin-

ues, health experts are warn-ing New Yorkers not to buyand to throw away all freshbulk tofu that has been kept atroom temperature. Even cook-ing this type of tofu is not adefinite safeguard against bot-ulism, as the organism’s sporescan still remain in the food.Once brought home, fresh to-fu should always be kept re-frigerated, health experts said.Prepackaged tofu productswhich are refrigerated are stillsafe.

The U.S. Senate’s top Republi-can called on his party tounite behind leading presi-dential candidate Mitt Rom-ney yesterday as rival RickSantorum vowed to stay inthe race beyond a likely de-feat in tomorrow’s Wisconsinprimary.

Senate Republican LeaderMitch McConnell stoppedshort of endorsing Romney inan interview on CNN’s “Stateof the Union” show. But Mc-Connell did say the formerMassachusetts governorwould make an “excellentnominee” and left littledoubt about whom he sup-ported in the battle to takeon Democratic PresidentBarack Obama in the Nov. 6election.

“It’s time to turn our atten-tion to the fall campaign andmake the case against thepresident of the United States.

“It’s important to get behindthe person who is obviouslygoing to be our nominee,” Mc-Connell said, referring toRomney.

A victory in Wisconsin’sprimary tomorrow would giveRomney an almost insur-mountable lead in the Repub-licans’ state-by-state nominat-ing contest.

McConnell joined a chorusof other top Republicans whohave called for the nominat-ing process to wind down.REUTERS

Santorum won’t quit race;GOP leader calls for unity

Santorum said a defeat in Wisconsin would not force him from the race and predicted he would do well in May, when several conservative states hold their primaries.

Mitt Romney won’t stop until he’s done an end to the health care bill that he himself inspired!

Mitt Romney hastrust issues. TheRepublican presi-dential candidate,accused of having

worn through more flip-flopsthan a spring break veteran,has earned a reputation oftrustworthiness approximate-ly commensurate with thatowed to an Etch-a-Sketch.Over the course of his politicalcareer, but especially duringthe tendentious 2012 nomi-nating process, the infamous“Massachusetts moderate” hasbecome known for sayingwhatever needs saying, when-ever it needs to be said, withthe express goal of serving hispolitical ambitions.

Cynical readers will notethat this actually describes allpoliticians. Of course. But thatdoesn’t mean we can’t stillhold Romney rhetorically ac-countable for his obvious dis-sembling. Take this past week-end for example, duringwhich His Mittness addresseda Wisconsin crowd ahead ofthe state’s primary tomorrow,touting his apparent immuni-

ty to partisan hackery.“I didn’t criticize in a pub-

lic and personal way the Sen-

ate president or the speakerof the House,” Romney said,claiming that as governor hewas able to stand above thetypical divide between thetwo parties. “They would at-tack me because that’s whatRepublicans and Democratsdo to each other. At onepoint, one of the two of them— I won’t mention whichone — sent me a note. Andhe said, ‘I’ve noticed that youdon’t respond to my attacks,I’m going to stop attackingyou.’ And there began a bet-ter relationship.”

You see? Just like hisporous positions onabortion rights andthe individual man-date, Romney was

for bipartisan harmony be-fore he was against it. Hewould never attack his rivals,because that’s what thoseother people do, and he’s notone of them. Except, ofcourse, when he is.

Like that same day, whenhe accused President Obamaof failing America and of hav-ing radically different viewsfrom the rest of us. “Ourpresident doesn’t have thesame feelings about Ameri-can exceptionalism that wedo,” Romney said withinhours of his high-mindedrefutation of ad hominem at-tacks. “This president hasfailed us. ... He broke a lot ofpromises.”

Romney, on the otherhand, is a man of his words.All of them, unfortunately.

2 THE WORDMetro’s Dorothy Robinson shares her take on the world of gossip @dorothyatmetro [email protected]

Lohan celebratesfreedom viapartyingDespite advice from a judge thatshe should probably stop party-ing, Lindsay Lohan celebratedthe end of her formal probationby throwing a little get-togetherat the Chateau Marmont, accord-ing to Radar Online. “Lindsay’sguests ate paella and watchedElizabeth Taylor’s ‘Who’s AfraidOf Virginia Woolf?’ Lindsay wasin an extremely good mood andgrateful to be off of formal pro-bation,” a source says. “The party

went until around 2 a.m. Alcoholwas being served in moderation,but Lindsay wasn’t seen drinking.It’s just rather strange that Lind-say chose to have the party at thehotel, especially after what thejudge said to her in court.”

Brand isphilosophicalDon’t worry about Russell Brand— he’s doing just fine. “I’m doingwell,” Brand, who filed fordivorce from Katy Perry late lastyear, tells People magazine. Andapparently “well” means he’s in aphilosophical mood. “You don’tneed to brush it off if you don’tget it on you in the first place,” hesays. “I don’t have to let anythinggo. I don’t hold on to anything

negative. It’s the same as zero-ness.” He’s also not holding ontohis recent arrest in New Orleans,which is “meaningless to me,” hesays. “It’s like it never happened.It’s meaningless.”

Winslet wants to barfWhile many still consider CelineDion’s “Titanic” tune, “My HeartWill Go On,” a classic, KateWinslet is literally sick of it. “I feellike throwing up when I hear it.No, I shouldn’t say that. No, actu-ally, I do feel like throwing up,”Winslet tells MTV News. “I wish Icould say, ‘Oh listen, everybody!It’s the Celine Dion song!’ But Idon’t. I just have to sit there, youknow, kind of straight-faced with

a massive, internal eye-roll.”

Gaga’s tamebirthday nightLady Gaga had a not-so-wild cel-ebration for her 26th birthday,treating her friends to some timeat the gym before grabbing din-ner with her parents, accordingto Us Weekly. “Her friends filledthe studio, and they had a blast,”a source says of Gaga’s visit toSoulCycle, an L.A. spin class stu-dio. “She requested [BruceSpringsteen’s] ‘Thunder Road’because it’s one of her favoritesongs. And as for the location ofthe celebratory dinner: home. “Itwas just a small thing with herfamily,” says the source. “Hermother cooked.”

Sheen is embarking onsomething of an apologytour. “I didn’t recognizeparts of who that guy was.I just wish it wassomebody else’s body. Yousay it’s been a year — it’seither been a day, or a hun-dred years,” Sheen toldMatt Lauer during an inter-view on the “Today” showlast week. “I guess the planwas to reintroduce myselfto America and to the me-dia and say, ‘Sorry aboutthat, but here’s what’s hap-pening now.’” Clearly, thatdidn’t go as planned. NowSheen is busying promot-ing a new TV show, FX’s“Anger Management.” “Icouldn’t have the ‘Two anda Half Men’ thing be mytelevision legacy,” Sheensays. “I couldn’t have thatend on that note.”

Although some might suggestthat SBTRKT bridges theboundaries between DJ-pro-duced electro and traditionalrock, he says he doesn’t letanything like genre stand inthe way of composition.

“In terms of writing music, Idon’t think about boundaries,”says Aaron Jerome, the U.K.-based producer who becomesSBTRKT when he puts on anAfrican-themed mask and getsin front of a console. “I thinkthere are so many facets of mu-sic out there — I’m just goingto keep trying different ideas.”

Best known for the smoothelectropop single “Wildfire,”Jerome spent March cruisingmusic festivals — from the all-encompassing SXSW confer-ence in Texas to electronic-fo-cused Ultra Music Festival inMiami.

SBTRKT refers to the ideathat Jerome is “subtracting” his

personal identity from the mu-sic. Unlike other electro acts,who perform hunched overbuttons, SBTRKT focuses on liveperformance using live drumsand collaborating with singerSampha.

“I try to use the best instru-ments possible for each envi-ronment,” says Jerome.

And after the recording iscompleted, he says the songscontinue to evolve in a livesetting.

“Every week, I’m addingnew sounds, new synths,” hesays. “[The songs] are constant-ly developing and writingthemselves.”

In touring through the U.K.,Australia and now the U.S., theone thing that Jerome has no-ticed about SBTRKT crowds isthe reaction.

“It’s always kind of crazythat the songs you create havemeaning in the world,” he says.

Mysterious UK electro producerdiscusses ignoring boundaries,collaborating with Drake and theevolution of a song in the live setting

Drizzy gets busyJerome’s unique approach hascaught the ears of high-profileacts — including Drake, whoremixed “Wildfire.”

“After that, I tweeted at himand he said he was going tocome down to the show. … I

didn’t think that it would hap-pen,” says Jerome aboutDrake’s guest appearance at hisshow in Toronto last summer.

The artist says he has recent-ly been speaking with OutKastand Odd Future about potentialcollaborations.

SBTRKT plays sold-out shows tonight at Music Hall of Williamsburg and tomorrow night at Webster Hall.

Lily Collins faces quitethe tall order with direc-tor Tarsem Singh’s“Mirror Mirror” —

namely, putting a nonanimat-ed face and an updated spinon perhaps the most classic offairy tales, “Snow White andthe Seven Dwarves.” But it’s achallenge she’s been happy totackle. Even with a competingSnow White film grabbing forheadlines, Collins (aka singerPhil’s daughter) is workinghard to keep her focus whereshe wants it.Did you ever think, in playinga fairy tale princess, that you’dget to do an action movietraining montage?No! I mean, it was written inthe script that she meets thedwarves and there would besword-fighting, but the scriptchanged so much during film-ing that this montage, when itwas added, I thought, “This isgoing to be so much fun toshoot.” It took a long time toshoot, but when it’s all cut to-gether with the music, it’s justso fun. And I never thoughtthat I’d be sword-fighting andfencing and learning all thesecool stunts. It is an interesting update.Fairy tales traditionally aren’tgreat for the females — lots ofsitting around and pining,waiting to be rescued.And that’s what we did notwant. We didn’t want to takethe animation and just make itlive-action. We wanted to takeit and have a reason to redo it.In today’s day and age, girls arevery empowered to do the

same things that guys do. Andyoung girls want to see moviesthat show people that they ad-mire are not needing theprince as much as they used to. How was it playing oppositeArmie Hammer with these newtakes on Snow White andPrince Charming?It was fun because we bothagreed from the get-go it’s avery Katharine Hepburn andSpencer Tracy back-and-forth— not just the physicality ofthe sword-fighting but thephysicality of the language,because it is so back and forth,and we’re both trying to one-up each other in conversa-tions. It was very playful. There’s that other Snow White

movie coming out in June. Howmuch were you aware of thecompeting project?I think it was known beforewe even started that therewere these two projects.Aesthetically and with the sto-ryline, they’re so different. Ithink more of the strugglewas just this whole, like,who’s coming out first kind ofa thing and making surethere’s enough time in be-tween so that everyone’s notoverloaded with the fairy tale.But that never really trickleddown to us on set.

Missouri State profes-sor Michele Grangerwrote the book onbreaking into the

fashion industry — three timesover. “Fashion Entrepreneur-ship: Retail Business Planning”and “The Fashion Intern” areboth in their second editions.Plus, “Fashion: The Industryand Its Careers” is a must-readfor anyone curious about a ca-reer in the field.

What’s a good first step forbreaking into the fashion industry? Retail work — especially forkids that are still in highschool. You get exposed to theproducts, management andsales. For college students, it’s

a step they can take beforethey move in at a higher levelafter graduation. What degrees shouldundergrads consider? There are really two primaryavenues. One is a degree infashion design or fashion prod-uct development; the other isfashion merchandising. Designskews toward the artistic, cre-ative people. Merchandising ismore of the business end. The fashion industry seems toembody myriad industries —from finance to creative design.Fashion is a lifestyle. It runs thegamut: what you put in yourhouse, your stationary, whatyou put on your body. Add tothat an incredible amount ofnews and journalism about the

industry — publications andwebsites. If you figure out yourskill set, you’ll likely find a di-rection within the industry. Is there room for altruism in afashion industry career? There are more and morenon-profits and others withinthe industry doing wonderfulwork: Housing Works andTOMS are just two. A lot ofstudents say, “I don’t want tobe part of an industry that’sfrivolous and wasteful.” Wemake sure to cover moral andethical issues in our course-work at Missouri State, andany good program should dothat.

How to break intothe fashion industry

It’s an intimidating field, no doubt But everyone has to startsomewhere — and there’s room for everyone, according to one expert

Former Goldman Sachs execu-tive director Greg Smith isn’tthe only restless professionalfidgeting with his too-tight tie.

After Smith’s recent resigna-tion, countless cubicle-captiveshave been flocking to Escapethe City, an organization whosemission statement dares work-

ers to “Stop Dreaming and StartPlanning. Don’t Wait forPermission. Do SomethingDifferent.”

In fact, in the week follow-ing Smith’s resignation, Escapethe City’s website registered afour- fold increase in hits andoverall membership.

Founded by two ex-manage-ment consultants fromLondon’s corporate nucleus,Escape the City “showcases ex-citing opportunities for a com-munity of talented corporateprofessionals and employerslooking to change up thegame,” says team memberMikey Howe.

Having recently expandedfrom London’s financial districtto New York City’s, the organi-zation has discovered antsy

sentiments stemming beyondWall Street.

“We originally targeted peo-ple in standard corporate posi-tions like finance, law andaccounting, but we’ve actuallytapped into something that isrelatively universal,” says Howe.“Our demographic is mostly

20- and 30-year-olds, but I get e-mails every day from peoplewho have been working for 30-plus years in a wide range of in-dustries they’re now leaving.”

Not only does the site offerjob postings from Cambodianresort management to sustain-ability work in Sierra Leone, it’salso a neighborhood-friendlyforum. “We are very member-focused. Any of our memberscan reach out to communitiesof escapees, learning fromthose who came from similarbackgrounds or entered theirparticular field of interest,” saysHowe. “It’s a great mix of peo-ple both offering and lookingfor help.”

Aries March 21-April 19. If thisweekend didn’t offer you muchrecreational relief, don’t push your-self too heavily. Balance your mentalprocesses in order to move forward.

Taurus April 20-May 20. You won’tbe compelled to take some time tohelp assuage the needs of others,but you’ll feel good about yourself ifyou do. Devote as much time as youfeel you can to the process.

Gemini May 21-June 20. You’llcome up with a rather ingeniousconcept — and because you’re a nat-ural-born salesperson, you shouldn’thave any problem selling it to thepowers that be.

Cancer June 21-July 22. This is oneof those days when you could be in-clined to be a bit loose with your re-sources and easily spend them onsomething you enjoy rather than onwhat you need. Be careful.

Leo July 23-Aug. 22. Sometimesgetting others to do something thatyou’re eminently qualified to do foryourself can be stupid. Delegatingsome of your work might be delete-rious rather than helpful.

Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22. This is oneof those days when you will be farmore effective playing a supportiverole rather than a starring one. Posi-tion yourself where you’ll be able todo the most good.

Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 23. Becauseyour affairs have a better chance ofworking out than you anticipate,don’t let yourself get discouragedover something petty. Stay positiveand optimistic throughout the day.

Scorpio Oct. 24-Nov. 22. By stayingpositive, others will admire the wayyou handle things and their appro-bation will enhance your imageeven further. Having a good attitudemakes for success.

Sagittarius Nov. 23-Dec. 21. Be-cause you’ll have implicit faith inwhatever your position happens tobe today, you’ll be easily aroused toa righteous defense. You’re in theright, and you should have no prob-lems making your points.

Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19. Don’thesitate to trade on the businessacumen of a trusted associate. Ajoint endeavor in which you’re in-volved will be far more promisingwith her or him on board.

Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 19. If yousense that making a concession or acompromise can be to your ultimatebenefit, you’d be right. This is one ofthose times when giving can be thekey to getting.

Pisces Feb. 20-March 20. Yourchances for achieving success will beincreased if you make sure your goalis clearly defined. It might be betterto have only one major target at atime. BERNICE BEDE OSOL

Solution to weekend’s crossword

Lottery mania couldyield better resultsCan we all agree that giving$640 million to potentiallyone person, or even a fewpeople, is obscene and com-pletely stupid? What are theygoing to spend it on — 10,000yachts, 900 mansions? It’s toomuch. They’d have been bet-ter to announce, “We are go-ing to pick 5,000 winners tosplit it.” Why don’t we createa more intelligent lotterywhere more people automati-cally win each week, but win$100,000 a year for the rest oftheir lives? I bet most Ameri-cans, if it were put to a vote,would choose this method,because their odds of winningwould be infinitely better. Also, if 1,000 people every sin-gle week won $100,000 peryear, this would help oureconomy more and reduceunemployment too! It also

means they wouldn’t goinsane like the winners whoreceive too much. And itmeans they wouldn’t bemugged, like a person whowins millions is too often! LIAM KIRCHBERGER, BROOKLYN

More than half a billion dol-lars? Wow, that’s insane! Atwork, everyone talked aboutwhat they would do withsome of the money. I couldn’treally think of anything butthe basics! VINCENT C-FLEMING, NEW YORK

Prayer as healthcare? Good luckA recent survey found that 25 percent of Americans be-lieve prayer is an effectiveform of health care. These 25 percent should not beforced to buy health care in-surance. But don’t you dare

show up at the emergencyroom! Just duct tape the Bibleto your gunshot wound anduse your rosary beads to forma tourniquet. ROBERT LA ROSA, WHITESTONE

“No person can beloyal to theConstitution anduphold the charterof the U.N.”

No person can be loyal to theConstitution and uphold thecharter of the U.N. They are asopposite as light and dark,good and evil, freedom andslavery. No man can serve twomasters. Support of the U.N.by government officials andemployees is a violation oftheir oath. Wittingly orunwittingly, it is treason.FRANK ST. GEORGE, EAST ROCKAWAY

Obama sold votersout to RussiaRE: “PRESIDENT OBAMA ON TRIALFOR THE TRUTH”: Mr. Beschler,to your critique of my letter:“People like Minkin” (thankyou for being polite) will“read malevolence” intowhat Obama whispered toMedvedev over the hot micsince we find it verydisappointing that our Presi-dent would attempt, for re-election sake alone, to hidehis true intentions from theAmerican people and yet toshare those with the govern-ment of a foreign country, es-pecially such a strong rival ofours. What you call his “pret-ty ambiguous statement” isin fact crystal clear — tomake concessions to Russiaand to scale down our missiledefense of Europe, which alsotelegraphs his weakness,both as a leader and as adiplomat, to our allies andenemies alike. Frankly, hischances for re-election havejust suffered a huge blow.And I’m not a Republican, ifthat’s what you thought.GAROLD MINKIN, NEW YORK

Being the second-besthitter on a Yankeessquad is nothing tosneeze at. After all,Lou Gehrig was the

second-best hitter in the 1927lineup.

Then again, when you be-come the best hitter on theteam, that is worthy of a cele-bration.

It may go without sayingthat second baseman Robin-son Cano is the best hitter onthe 2012 Yankees. He wasprobably the best hitter on the2010 and 2011 team too. Sowhy didn’t anyone notice?

Cano finished sixth in MVPvoting last season and thirdthe year before. Third will alsobe the new position Cano willtake in the batting order —traditionally reserved for thebest pure hitter on a team.Alex Rodriguez held that posi-tion for a long time.

“I’m proud of it, proud tobat third because it shows I’vecontinued to work hard,”Cano told The New YorkTimes this week. “But I’ll hitwherever they want me. Itdoesn’t matter, because wher-ever you hit in this lineup, youhave to produce.”

Cano has never hogged thespotlight on a team that hassuper-priced free agents MarkTeixeira and Rodriguez andhomegrown heroes like DerekJeter.

But he’s surpassed thoseplayers at the plate and all fora measly $10 million last sea-son. He will likely be a freeagent after next season (theteam owns a club option for2013), but that’s an issue fordown the road.

As the Yankees shift intothe future, Cano will be thecenterpiece. Jeter and Ro-

driguez will be gone. Thoseveterans are already being rel-egated to stints at designatedhitter to keep them fresh.Meanwhile, Cano has missed11 games in the last five years.Combined.

Now he is trying to bounceback from a down year in2011. He only hit .302 with 28home runs. When you hit .342in your second season in themajors, that’s a down year.

lineupTHIRD WATCHNo longer the rising star, Robinson Cano is the best all-around hitter on the Yankees Joe Girardi has slotted him in the No. 3 spot Can he carry team back to the playoffs?

Rivera on agood-bye tour?When you are the greatestplayer ever at your position,you deserve one last laparound the league to receiveyour standing ovations.

Yankees closer MarianoRivera, on the other hand,would prefer to keep that vic-tory lap a secret.

No one besides Rivera, not

even manager Joe Girardi orgeneral manager Brian Cash-man, know if he will retire

after the 2012 season. But hiscomments at the opening ofspring training have ledmany of believe it is his last.

“It is hard when you havethe ability to continue andyou have to make that deci-sion [whether to retire],"Rivera said as camp opened.“It is hard. For me, baseball isnot everything.”

Whether it’s his last sea-son or not, he’ll still deservestanding ovations. METRO

Rivera

Robinson Cano has moved into the third spot in the Yankees’ lineup, but he long ago took over as the team’s best hitter.

Rarely does a team have theluxury of their biggest ques-tion mark being a two-timeCy Young winner.

But that’s where the Metsstand heading into 2012 sea-son.

Johan Santana is in the sec-ond-to-last season of a six-year, $137.5 million contact.Slightly over 21 million ofthat came last season, whenhe didn’t throw a single pitch.

And yet, on a team wherenothing seems to go right, thebest news of spring traininghas consistently been aboutSantana’s progress from ma-jor shoulder surgery. In his 181/3 innings pitched he’s al-lowed 17 hits and struck out13, while pitching to a 3.44ERA. While spring trainingstatistics don’t necessarilymean much, being healthyenough to throw every five

days does.Manager Terry Collins an-

nounced this past weekendthat Santana will take the ballon Opening Day. It’s been along road back.

“It means everything thatwe have done since I had mysurgery, all the way to today,has been paid off,” Santanatold reporters after beingnamed the Game 1 starter.“We worked hard. And I’mvery happy. I’m very happythat I have an opportunity tostart the season from day onewith the team. That’s some-thing that I really was lookingforward to. I’m excited aboutit.”

The Mets hope Santanawill still be with the team atGame 162 as well. With justone year left on his contractafter this season, he could bea prime trade piece on themarket this July — if he is stillhealthy and depending onhow competitive the Mets arethis season.

It’s no secret those twothings will go hand-in-hand aswell.

Projected

lineup

1 Andres Torres, CF —Unprovenis putting itlightly. He’splayed onefull season(2010) and had a .343 OBP. They’d take that.

2 Daniel Murphy, 2B —The realquestionwill alwaysbedefense. As a hitter, he should besolid in the No. 2 spot.

3 David Wright, 3B —They needmore pow-er out ofWrightthis year.Hopefully the new wallhelps.

4 Jason Bay, LF — We couldwrite “seeabove.”Oh, andpleasestay healthy for once.

5 Ike Davis,1B — If heplays likehe did be-fore beinginjured, watch out.

6 Lucas Duda, RF — His .370 OBPis thehighest of any re-turningplayer.

7 Josh Thole, C — The .268AVG and.345 OBPof lastyearwoulddelight the Mets.

8 RubenTejada,SS — No,he’s notexactlygoing to replace JoseReyes. But he’s just 22 andplayed well last year.

General manager Sandy Alderson says ‘the sky is not falling’ Mets fansLineup looks solid as long as everyone is healthy (knock on wood)

So will their ace show up or will it be another sad season in Queens?

The rotation

The Mets’ lineup isn’t badwhen healthy, it’s their pitch-ing that holds a lot of thequestions.

1 Johan Santana, LHPIf healthy, you can pencilhim in for about 175

innings and a sub-3.50ERA.

2 R.A. Dickey, RHPWhen not climbing moun-tains, the knuckleballerhas been the team’s bestpitcher the last two years.

3 Jon Niese, LHPThe 25-year-old could beentering a make or breakthird full season.

4 Dillon Gee, RHPIf he cuts down his walks(71 in ‘11) he’s a solid No. 4.

5 Mike Pelfrey, RHPStop licking your hand andlive up to expectations.

Wright, Bayhappy to seenew wallsIf you rebuild it, the homeruns will come.

That is the hope for theMets anyway. After threeseasons of woeful home runtotals at Citi Field, the Metsorganization finally decidedto change the dimensions oftheir cavernous home park.

A shorter left field wall,previously at 16 feet, wasbuilt to make the distanceshorter and the height wascut in half. The “MoZone” in right field wasremoved altogether,which the cutout areabeing changed into astraight angle. Thisbrought in the wallfrom 415 feet to390 feet.

“It’s nice tolook outthere andyou seethe

adjustments and you knowin the back of your mindthat hopefully if you hit aball well, it’s going to goout,” Wright told reportersafter arriving at springtraining, where the dimen-sions in Port St. Lucie wereadjusted to mirror CitiField.

The Mets hope bothWright and Jason Bay willbenefit from the smaller di-mensions.

Wright has hit just 22home runs in his threeyears at Citi Field, while hisfinal three years at Shea Sta-dium he hit 50 homers, in-

cluding 21 in 2008alone.

Bay’s power num-bers haven’t just de-creased, they’ve dis-

appeared. After hitting36 homers in 2009

with Boston,he’s hit 18 intwo yearswith NewYork.

NL East: PhilliesNL Central: RedsNL West: Giants

Mark OsborneMetro New York

AL East: RaysAL Central: TigersAL West: Angels

Matt BurkeMetro Boston

AL wild cards: Yankees and RangersNL wild cards: Marlins and Diamondbacks

Detroit. They already had perennialCy Young candidate Justin Verlander.Now the Tigers throw Prince Field-er’s 40 home runs into the mix.We’re betting on 100 wins and a cigarette endorsement deal for JimLeyland.

Angels. Sure, everyone knows theyadded Albert Pujols, but look at theirpitching staff. Jered Weaver, C.J. Wil-son, Dan Haren and Ervin Santanacould be the best top 4 in the entiremajors. Oh, also, they signed AlbertPujols.

San Francisco. The of-fense was dreadfullast season, but thereturn of BusterPosey in the middleof the lineup shouldhelp reverse SanFran’s fortunes.

Miguel Cabrera.Reported tocamp in the“best shape ofhis life.” That'snot saying much,but all signs point to anotherworldly season.

Jose Bautista. Forget all the nonsen-sical steroids talk. This guy shouldhave won the AL MVP last year.He batted .302 with a .447 OBPand clubbed 42 home runs to givehim the best OPS in the majorsas well. He’s real people.

Joey Votto. The 28-year-old sometimesgets lost in the shuf-fle, but with PrinceFielder and AlbertPujols changingleagues, it’s his time.

Roy Halladay. Silence all the StephenStrasburg talk right now. Doc spenthis offseason wrestling snakes andpolishing his two Cy Young awards.Mark the Phillies’ ace down for 22wins and 240 innings. Another ho-hum season.

Clayton Kershaw. It wasKershaw, not Halladay or Ver-

lander, who had the best ERAin the majors last year. He

had 248strikeouts in

233 1/3 IP.

Justin Verlan-der. Still thegoldstandard.

Could the 2011AL MVP and Cy YoungAward winner possiblymatch his 2011 output?

Tampa Bay. Every year, peoplecount out the Rays and it’s alwayshard to understand why. With leftyMatt Moore, the most experiencedrookie in the majors, Tampa Baycould easily win the AL Eastoutright in 2012. Here’s sayingthey will.

Atlanta. This is going to be an uglysurprise. The Braves have Matt Diazand Tyler Pastornicky in their lineupand they just signed Livan Hernandezas a possible starter. I can’t believepeople think this team is an actualplayoff contender.

Pittsburgh. They haven’t had awinning season since 1992 and arethrowing out Erik Bedard onOpening Day. Still, in a weak divi-sion, we like the Bucs to do somedamage. Andrew McCutchen is afive-tool talent.

Which team will lead the majors inwins during the regular season?

Which hitter will have the best regular season?

Which pitcher will have the bestregular season?

Which team will be a surprise —good or bad — this year?

Cabrera is a slightly slimmer bad man.

Troy Tulowitzki

SHORTSTOP, ROCKIESIf the NL is looking for anuntainted star, it could per-haps find him in Colorado,where the All-Star shortstopis already being touted as anMVP candidate. The Rockiesshould be contenders in theWest, and Tulo might finallybe on the precipice of a mon-ster season.

30Tulowitzki blasted 30homers in 2011 alongwith a career-high 105RBI and a .916 OPS.

Albert Pujols FIRST BASEMAN, ANGELSThe Angels might be themost stacked team on bothsides of the ball in theAmerican League, and theacquisition of Pujols is thelinchpin. But, still, the line-up behind Pujols in Los An-geles is hardly Murderer’sRow, and Pujols could easi-ly get the Bonds treatmentin his new league. How headjusts could determinethe American League pen-nant.

Matt Kemp

CENTER FIELD, DODGERSDo you believe in Magic?Maybe things are finallylooking up for the Dodgers,who have been looking upin the National League Weststandings for the past fewyears.

But they still have Kemp,who might be the best play-er in baseball no one knows

about. Maybe some baseballShowtime in Los Angeles.will finally make Kemp astar.

Kemp batted .324 at thedish last year while drivingin a career-high 126 runswith 39 homers.

He finished second toRyan Braun in the NL MVPvoting.
