I mean don’t get me wrong. I LOVE the fact that baseball is back. After a long cold winter there is nothing better
than the pop of the glove and the sound of Jerry on the radio. However I can’t get caught up in the day to
day results. It is essentially just 6 long
weeks of practice.
I used to care. I used to follow the box scores with a passion
and base my hopes for the season on breakouts like Buck Coats, Jason Lane and
Josh Towers....but it means nothing. Last season being a prime example; the Jays
dominated the Spring sched and then came out flat once the real games began.
So it is fun and all, but I cannot get excited
with the day to day and the same old storylines over and over again: best shape
of my life, improved team chemistry, he’s working on a changeup....yadda yadda
yadda.
Instead I just hope everyone stays healthy and
that it is a very quiet Spring. So far
so good*
*although in two weeks we might have to start
worrying about Ricky.
