I was just checking to see if there is any information on where Yofu will start this season.

Someone mentioned he was signed by another organization, is this true?

Bull said I was wrong, which doesn't surprise me as I was saying it off memory alone. I think he said he is staying in extended Spring Training.

 

On a side note, can someone please explain what extended ST exactly is and what the point of it is?

Basically just additional training camp/games for returning rookie league players and for players coming off injuries.

Extended spring training is essentially where the short season players are as well as where injured players rehab. From what I've heard from some players it absolutely sucks. Its one of those things you never want to have to do.

 

Of course when there the player will be working with the coaches on different things and they scrimmage and such. Extended spring is in Tuscon.

 

And yes, Yofu is slated to start the year in extended spring training. To be honest I think this is more of an organizational thing because Yofu was pitching for the Sox when I saw them a little over a week ago against the Mariners. He was pretty pathetic too, couldn't come close to finding the strike zone. Then again all of the Sox looked bad that game (on easter sunday).
