in Spring Training
176 comments
The O's and Nats will get together for some sort of "special" spring training game in Fort Lauderdale today with nothing on the line and hopes that nobody gets hurt. But my disdain for caring about spring training games and statistics aside, this baby will be on MASN, MLB Network and MLB.tv at 1pm today, and that's fun. I might even be around to try to muster up some mustard.

Cabrera will go 2 innings
He will walk 3, hit a batter and be yanked after walking the leadoff batter in the 3rd.

I smell some runs from our 1-6 spots.....
if freel can get on base, he can steal a bag, roberts can either drive him in or move him over to 3rd……
i know it’s spring training but it is so hard to wait to boo teixeira…

Freel is batting 9th.
Or did you mean the second time they come up?

best of luck to our hitters in the first few innings as well...
watch out for those inside 92 mph fastballs from dcab… thank god he isn’t throwing 95-97 like he used to

Today should be a good day
The weather was saying all week that it was supposed to get up to 55-60 today. If so, I’ll definitely be out on the canoe in the Severn, with the radio at my side…

Sucks that Wieters played yesterday
Would have been good to see the franchise savior play in a game.
BTW, he’s been lighting it up so far in ST with a 1.300 OPS. 12 spring training AB’s is a large enough sample size, isn’t it?

I’ve told Daniel a thousand times, ‘If I ever face you, I’m just going to stand there. If you can throw three strikes, that’s great.’ Then, just for fun, I’m going to steal on the first pitch.

Judas Priest, that kid is BIG
Never actually seen a complete at-bat of his. Wow, he’s huge.

crap!
I could only watch the first hour during my lunch break and missed Wieters. Did the crack of his bat sound like holy thunder? Did the clouds part and a glorious ray of sunshine alight upon his shoulders when he was in the box? Did cats and dogs get along during his at bat?

Dogs and cats...
but no clouds parting. He’s not on the ML roster yet.

he’s hard to listen to because of his girly voice. Sorry Dave, but you sound like a chipmunk.

I'm late to the party
I caught a few of Wieters games in Bowie. The ball explodes off his bat. Can’t wait to see him in the Show. It will make a 72-90 season much more watchable.

“Alex Gonzalez, the shortstop, missed all of last year, how will HE bounce back?”
Ah, one of the burning questions in base ball.

If he has a jew fro it’ll make him a less professional player. He’ll probably get injured too.

Wow, you know it is easy to forget about guys like that with all this talk about the big three and whatnot. It would be nice if one (or some) of our failed prospects re-emerged this year…Hayden I’m lookin’ at you kid!

Still,
he is a failed prospect. I guess some just fail worse than others.

He really hasn’t had a shot at the ML yet… although he didn’t exactly lit up AAA last year.
