It’s one of the annual traditions here at C70 At The Bat, our trip around the majors in blog form. Since 2009, I’ve been asking bloggers from other teams about what’s going to happen with their squad in the coming season. It’s always fun to see what the opposition is thinking and how optimistic some [...]
The weather outside wouldn’t tell you it, of course. Both here and St. Louis are expected to have more winter weather tomorrow, hopefully the last we’ll see before the end of 2015. It’s cold and miserable. Which makes the Jupiter happenings even that more important, bringing warm feelings to cold folks. Many clubs will kick [...]

Well, that was happily anticlimatic. The tests and examination of ace Adam Wainwright showed that he just had an abdominal strain and would be fine with a few days of rest. Given that the Cards were already planning to lighten his workload in the spring anyway, this basically plays right into their hands. I know [...]

You know, there are a lot of ways that you would like spring training to start. A good speech by Mike Matheny (which is on tap for today, I think). Lots of “best shape of my life” stories. Perhaps a goofy photo or two of players in red. Way, way, WAY down the list is [...]

I sit here able to see the couple of inches of snow that fell yesterday. I sit here iced in, at least for the morning, keeping me from heading to work. (Yes, I know, you Northerners are a hale, hearty lot that would head to work on your Tauntaun. Yet 90 degrees this summer will [...]

Seems like every year about this time, I make the same analogy. Spring training is Lent for the baseball fan. Of course, it’s not just me that’s making the connection. If, unlike me, you didn’t grow up in the Christian church (or were part of a denomination that didn’t emphasize this), Lent is the 40 [...]
