My love of baseball in all its forms: the Phillies, fantasy baseball, the hot stove, the playoffs, the roar of the crowd, the trade rumors, the free agents, and of course... the peanuts.

Lack of Updates; Spring Training News!

Well, sorry for the lack of updates. Plain and simple, nothing the Phillies are doing is really inspiring me. I'm glad Rollins re-signed, though only for the short term. Perhaps that means it won't be another salary that the Phillies will be saddled with down the line. Polanco came to terms, and 4.6 million is a LOT for him. Jose Offerman is on the minor league team, and I hope to God that Shane Victorio beats him out.

And... that's it. Now, it's a waiting game for Spring Training, which I'm excited to announce I'll be at! Yes, that's right, for my bachelor party, my buddies and I are heading to Florida for a weekend to catch some baseballs and ball games. I'll be the one in the powderblue 1970's Phillies jersey.

Ed, have you ever been to spring training? I went last year with my two best friends, who happen to be Braves fans, and I am dead serious when I say that we were there for only five minutes before we decided it should be an annual trip. We are in the midst of planning our trip for this year...

I've never been! But what you just wrote has gotten me even more excited about it - I've always wanted to see what spring training was all about, b/c there are people (like you) who call it such a great time. I can't wait.
