Spring Training is almost over!!



Here is a picture of John Lannan warming up before a game. i think we have a much better team this year and that it is crazy what the Washington Post predicted for us this year. In the paper our predicted finish was 59-102 and in last place. That is bazaar and we need more positivity than that. My prediction is 500 (81-81) and if we are that good or better we might have a place in the play-offs!! One of the things I saw in spring training that made me feel good about the team was an excellent pickle or run-down between second and third. i think Jesus Flores and Nick Johnson have recovered pretty well so we have gotten some of our strength back. But there are still two things that concern me. Not having Dmitri Young and him still having such back problems and the bullpen. The reason the bullpen is concerning is when I talked to Mr. Acta he said it was an area of concern but he is usually pretty positive about everything. But we have made some pretty big changes since I talked to him so I don't think there is much to worry about anymore.



Here I am with future pitching star Jack McGeary. I went and saw a few of the minor league games because we didn't have enough time to drive to Jupiter, Florida and see the game. I saw Joe Biemal and Jack McGeary as you see in this picture. Our minor leagers look pretty good.

Next time I write I will put up my interview with Mr.Acta.

Play Ball!!
