Yeah...I don't get it at all...as usual. And all the west coast teams playing each other. I'd rather have the team on the road for ten days or so to start out and at least be playing...but whatever. It'll never change.
And what exactly would the Sox do with Happ that the Cubs won't do?...stash him in AAA for a while? I mean I like Happ's potential and all (hopefully the Cubs didn't ruin him)...but really can't see a place for him on the Sox any time soon?
He's been sick this year...made some money for himself this spring. ASU really has a potent lineup...especially that middle of the order with Aldrete, Torkelson and Bishop. Vastly overlooked team when the season started.
except Gordon Beckham sucked. Nobody is jerking around Moncada. Moncada is fine with it and his stellar play over at 3rd this spring has shown. Like Lillian said...it's not about whether he's fine playing 3rd...which clearly he is.
I don't live back there but I can't imagine NOT going to at least a few games. I really wasn't that awful pissed when Manny signed with the Padres at first...but since it's happened I've gotten more pissed by the day. Had a chance to make a huge splash and pussed out. Honestly...I couldn't give two fucks what Kenny Williams thinks or says. He's been irrelevant for how many years now.
Shoulda been this week...weather was perfect! The Ranch during the week is awesome...show up...grab a beer and Chicago dog...sit anywhere. I had a slow work week...so I've seen 3 games this week already. Buddy has a ticket for me for Sox/Cubs Sunday in Mesa...but don't think I want to deal with that shit show.
yeah...that sun popped out yesterday and I was hot. First time ever NOT wearing shorts to a spring training game... since it was a tad cool at my house. Got to the park and the sun came out and I was hot. Burned the shit out of my face too! Remember that sunscreen!!!!!
that's what's impressive tho...his 9-14 numbers...zero dingers. He was spraying the field with ropes. His first dinger was last night...and it was A BOMB! Would have left Rosenblatt and then some.
