C'mon Todd!!!

Pulling a classic nerd move by watching some tape-delayed Cactus League action from this afternoon's game against the Brewers. The early returns on Todd's surgically repaired back are encouraging to say the least. Seems like he's only been playing for a little over a week and he's already hit four dongs. Spilly has also gone yard today giving him his third dinger of Cactus League. I'm starting to think that a healthy, re-invigorated Helton and Spilly playing everyday, instead of the bunting machine that was Willy T, might make up some (emphasis on some) of the power lost with Holliday gone.

Ubaldo is also looking mighty dominant on the hill. Obviously, he is vital for the rotation to have any sort of punch this year.

Also, give me Goodman and Fraz any day over these losers collaborating from Fox Sports Wisconsin.

Two weeks until opening day and counting.....

Matt Murton Fever

A certain "Matty" is having himself a pretty good little Cactus League. A .450 batting average might look pretty good on a scrub outfielder's resume. Cory Sullivan already seems like a distant memory. Thanks Murt-Dog!

Is It Time For Me To Take Over Yet?

All this talk about how critical a fast start is and then the team goes 0-7? Must be time to pass the reigns over to Papa Baylor. What? This is only Cactus League? Whaahhhh!?!?! Who gives a shit!!!! I don't see the regular season starting off any differently, so why not just give me the keys to the car now and maybe we aren't 10 games out of first before May. You're welcome....
