Snow in time for spring training



 Just in time for the biggest (and nearly the first) snow of the year, we also got the first reports to Spring Training. We did it everyone, we made it to Spring Training. I'm actually thankful for this snow that we got, because it really makes baseball seem special. It seems so distant right now, but it's so close. 

It was a slow start to the offseason, but it really picked up lately. A lot of the fan base is lamenting the weaker rotations, but national writers are enamored with the bullpen, and prospect followers are excited about the young talent that is going to have more time under their belt; Eddy Julien, Royce Lewis, even Jose Miranda is primed to come back. Then there is the potential arrival of Brooks Lee to get excited about.

And this isn't the "hey, maybe it will be better this year" type of wishful thinking we had through a lot of the 2010s. Remember, this is how last year went.


Warm thoughts, everyone.
