People ask me what I do in winter when there’s no baseball. I’ll tell you what I do. I stare out the window and wait for spring.

For those who may be stopping by looking for a baseball fix, here's a couple of links to keep you going:
Rays Prospects is starting an analysis of their 30 top prospects in the system. Those on the list we haven't seen already, we have a good chance of seeing in the future.
Over on Rays Index, Cork Gaines recently summarized various trade rumors.
Several days ago the Rays did some maneuvering around with their 40-man roster to protect a few youngsters from the "Rule 5" draft. See the items at DRaysBay and theSt Pete Times. Of interest to Bulls fans is that Aneury Rodriguez has not been "protected". That implies that the Rays think they can get along without him if another team wants him badly enough.
As a reminder, Rays Prospects is keeping track of Rays players playing winter ball.
Lastly, for the truly desperate baseball junkies who might be passing by, here's a lead on the reorganization of the Independent Leagues.
Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!

Another potential baseball fix - the Bulls Fanfest on Dec. 11th, with appearances by Chris Richard and Elliot Johnson. http://www.durhambulls.com/team/press_release.html?id=1555
ReplyDeleteHas anyone been to one of these in the past?
Have never been. Might be fun to ask Elliot about baseball in Mexico and query Chris on whether or not he thinks he will be back next year. Probably a small crowd.
