Well, it's spring training for real now. Teams are playing each other and all the rookies are so happy to be in camp learning so much from the grizzled veterans. And the veterans are just trying to get through the process, are all feeling great (despite a few extra pounds), and may not look great because they're all working on something new that's gonna extend their careers another 4-6 years.
The Giants will be going "commando" since they'll be without Underpants (Captain, that is, Hunter Pence) who's out for a couple of months or so due to a forearm bone injury from an errant pitch.
Preston Tucker left the game today (Saturday, 3/7, vs Yankees) also for being hit by a pitch. Let's hope nothing is broke.
Maybe we can start the countdown on Domingo Santana who has 3 strikeouts now in 4 ABs for the young s/t season. The 4th AB resulted in an RBI groundout.
Grossman has been productive so far. It would be great if he could hit before July or so when he usually finds his way out of the woods.
Anyway, I just thought we needed a place for random spring training news, observations and comments.
