So we have another day game.. things are looking good right now for the weather but we have more storms moving through today. They had the tarp on the field during the morning showers and here’s hoping that the next round holds off until post game. However, it’s rapidly heating up out there and all that moisture in the air makes it a pretty muggy day. The first thing I think of in such conditions is.. wow, the ball is likely to fly high and long today.
Everyone cross your fingers and wish Cole good luck today! And I’m going to hope that Carroll has his spot over at SS a little more in mind than he did last night – which was definitely unusual but still painful.
Although he’s not in the lineup yet today, I’m kind of excited to see what Florimon is able to do up in the big leagues but I’m also prepared to give him a little time to get the hang of things. I liked what I saw from him in Spring Training but he’s had some injury issues this season and still seemed to be able kick a little backside.
