The first day of
- Danny Knobler has a blog over at Mlive. His first report finds: a moratorium on talk of last year out of respect to Trammell, Pudge is more relaxed and 6-8 pounds heavier than last year, the 25 man roster will have 12 pitchers, and those pitchers will be taking grounders every day.
- Jason Beck talked with Pudge. Rodriguez plans on playing 140 games this season.
- While not a spring training article, Baseball Think Factory launched a new blog called Baseball Centrist. If you want to keep track of everything being written about the Tigers main competitors, this is the place to go.
- Rob Parker wrote something for the Detroit News today. A couple of blogs have already weighed in on the article. I’m not going to respond or even link to the article. It is such a poor piece of writing that it doesn’t warrant a rebuttal. Columnists like Parker write things to stir the pot and get people riled up. This was such garbage it doesn’t deserve the attention.

– Moratorium: Good idea
– Pudge: Play as much as you want, as long you play better
– Parker: He has always been an idiot. Thank you for not linking to his trash.
I’m looking to get 2 grandstand 21-packs for the weekday plan. They come with 12 upper deck vouchers this year, so it’ll amount to more games than I have time for. Anyone interested in splitting? It wouldn’t necessarily have to be 50/50.
I didn’t know Pudge was a poet:
“I feel strong.
I feel great.
I feel strong behind the plate.”
Good meter, too.
