Arrived in Clearwater yesterday, staying two weeks and taking in alot of baseball!  For a phanatic like me this is heaven!

Today went to Carpenter Complex and took in some Minor League B Games.  B games are free and the players intermingle with the fans just like you were at a high school game, pretty cool.  Saw Kyle Drabek pitch for the Jays Triple A club.  He is indeed special and it is easy to see why the Fightins were hesitant to swap him.  Toronto has a true ace of the future in this young man, nasty hook, above average heater and ball moves crazy!  Gonna be a big winner in the show.

Scott Mathieson threw extremely well for the Phillies Triple A club in this one, he will be in Philly before the summer is out, ball really pops, sawed off a couple of bats and most hitters struggled catching up with him at all! 

Jamie Moyer got hit around in the morning B game at Englebrecht, the Jays complex.  He faced many big league hitters though but unless he shows progress may end up in the pen.

Rumor floating today of a mega deal……superman for batman!  Pujols for Howard………don’t think it has any chance whatsoever though. 

Going to a big leaugue training game tommorrow, Phillies vs Yanks.    If you have never done spring training before and your are a baseball fan you should do this at least once.   Sweet!
