Well, we won and according to various radio staff, that means that we had the best record in the Grapefruit League.  I guess that is a good thing although I still don’t think that spring training baseball is all that monumental a thing but it’s good to know we were winning games.

Today was … boring.  How can baseball ever be boring?  I don’t know but I was finding myself paying more attention to stripping paint off of crown molding than the game on more than one occasion so.. yeah, that’s unusual. (I hate paint-stripping.)  At any rate, Kubel kind of led us to victory today for hitting and all our pitching was pretty phenomenal so I think we’re ready to go…

Bring on Toronto.
