Calamity Kris Posted January 6 Posted January 6 Port St. Lucie is fairly close to where I live. We'll have to see if we can catch a Cards pre-season game this year. 1 Quote

Cypress Sun Posted January 6 Posted January 6 Can't get excited about the Rays this year. The owner is a complete ******e. The entire Rays situation in Pinellas Co. has become a convoluted, money grubbing mess. Stuart Steinberg can kiss my ***. As long as he owns the team, I'll never support them. Go Baltimore or Toronto! Glad baseball is almost back though! 1 Quote

Rye Miles #13621 Posted January 7 Posted January 7 (edited) The Guardians/Indians made some really dumb moves, they got rid of a gold glove second baseman, Gimenez and a power hitter 27 yr old first baseman Josh Naylor. They got a veteran pitcher (??) who's mediocre at best and a minor leaguer for Gimenez and brought back 39 yr old Carlos Santana (not the musician) again to play first base. 12 million for one year! I seriously have no faith in this organization at all. Edited January 7 by Rye Miles #13621 1 Quote
