Hola amigos. It's been a while since I rapped at ya.

 

My buddy Ron was signed up for the game thread this morning, but he texted me last night to say he would be too hung over to get it posted. I told him I'd do the deed in exchange for a cold six pack and he agreed.

 

Anyway, it's my first spring training game thread, and coach is only giving me 40 words to get it done. So I gotta make it short and sweet. 

 

In a word, yours truly is feeling great today. I pulled a double shift last night and made some serious tippage. On the way home I swung into the Quik Pik and filled the tank on the Festiva. And check this out. I also picked up four - yes four - pizzas for the freezer. Four. Seriously, I don't remember the last time I even had two frozen pizzas in the bank.

 

The game is even on the boob toob today. Ron just texted me to say he is stopping by with the brews at noon, at which time I will be firing up the oven to do double duty on a couple of those 'zas. Yes, the afternoon is setting up nicely for your buddy Jim Anchower.*

 

Here are the lineups.

 

CF Buxton

2B Dozier

DH Mauer

3B Sano

RF Kepler

1B Vargas

SS Polanco

C Castro

LF Schuck

 

Pitcher: Ervin Santan

Also, whoa, looks like an opening day lineup.

Beautiful day with wind blowing in strong, it'll take strength to clear the fences today. As usual not alot of interest, and I left 45 minutes ago but I'll guess 5000 attendance today with the Canuks.

Kepler, to me, looks like he was born to play right field.

 

If both Rosario and Kepler are the real deal I cannot imagine anyone trying to take an extra base on those two.

So haven't actually been watching the game (also, Ron never swung by with the brewskis).

 

Looks like we either get the good fielding, poor hitting Sano, or the poor fielding good hitting Sano? Ugh. Put it all together big man!

Maybe the two Sanos will meet opening day?

I really like what I'm seeing in Gordon.  Maybe later this year:  Polanco 2B and Gordon SS??

 

That would be a pretty exciting pair!

Yup ... although I think even later this year might be too soon for Gordon ... but maybe not. But I think that's what it will be soon if not sooner.
