ChanceSchmerr Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 ......and so help me, I'm actually excited. Maybe it was seeing Jose Bautista crush a HR literally out-of-the-park in his first AB of the spring Maybe I've lost my senses completely, considering the Blue Jays have made no impact moves whatsoever the entire offseason (although removing the steaming heap of JP Arencibia counts as major addition by subtraction) Maybe it's because I found 40-1 World Series odds on the Jays while in Vegas a couple weeks ago and I'm deluded enough to think my $50 wager might actually pay off. But I'm actually excited again for Baseball. Bring on the Old Ball Game! And screw the Spankees, Red Sux, OrioLOLs and Tampa No-Fans. This season - Dickey, Joey Bats and the boys are bringing the Pennant home to TORONTO! Wooooooo Baseball!
SurpriseMVP Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 Ha, cant wait for spring training to end. I live a mile from the Rangers/Royals park. Traffics is gridlock, even more retired people in Buicks are on the road, and cant get into a restaurant anywhere. Often wondered that if they stop producing Buick that people would stop driving 25 miles under the speed limit. Mike
Colt45 Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 Given your prognostications from last year...... I think the Red Sox are a safe bet to lose 80 this year. Bank on it.
brutusthebuckeye Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 Watch out for The Tribe this year!! Last year we lost a one game play off.. This year people are thinking maybe a deep playoff run! They ll win 78 games and finish 4th in the division.. Welcome to Cleveland!!
Orion21 Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 I will be at two Giants games this weekend. Suck it monkeys!
ChanceSchmerr Posted February 26, 2014 Author Posted February 26, 2014 Given your prognostications from last year...... Fair Point I'd make that bet again this year. The gloss comes off Farrell and that team learns how lousy a manager he really is.
Lant63 Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 GO TIGERS! The best starting rotation in baseball plus the best hitter the game has ever seen. #miggyforMVP #triplecrown
LLC Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 Looking forward to it as well. must mean this enter that will never end may actually end at some point.
Maplepie Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 Card, Cards Cardinals!! Shame Chris Carpenter left though... He was one of my all time favourites, even from childhood but we'll still Freese 'em out!
Profmd Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 Can't wait!! First game today for Jays and a win!! Can only go downhill from here. LOL!! Let's hope not as bad as last season. Considering the terrible winter, it's a great sign that Spring is just around the corner too!!
DrunkenMonkey Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 Mark my words, this is the year of the Cincinnati Reds. Opening day can't come soon enough!
Bandyt09 Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 Card, Cards Cardinals!! Shame Chris Carpenter left though... He was one of my all time favourites, even from childhood but we'll still Freese 'em out! As a baseball fan living down the street from Angels stadium, let me thank you now for Mr. Freese. It seemed like the Rangers had our number, sticking us with players AFTER career years, Gary Matthews Jr & C.J. Wilson and then it was Josh Hamilton (not after a career year). Now it seems like the Cards were next in line with sticking it to us, Mr. Pujols & now Mr. Freese. Thanks goodness, I'm a Cubs fan......................

Sun City is worse though.
BatFastard Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 LAD!! Oh yeah… Can't wait for some good ole Scullyisms!!
thecrowder Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 What a great day in spring training! Joey Bats bomb in his first AB was an absolute missile and Reddick robbing Morse of 2 home runs was epic! I have been to spring training multiple times and I can honestly say that I probably enjoy the games more during ST than the regular season. I love being so close to the field and being able to hear the players talking to each other. Plus, everyone is so much more relaxed and willing to interact with the fans. I highly recommend going to a game if you get the chance
