Fredi’s Fu Manchu, glad it works for you. I was hoping you would not have a problem because it said IE1, even though people said it worked just fine with their IE7’s and IE8’s. cnet is a really good site.

Martinez induces 5-4-3 DP by first batter he faces, Duda, to end inning. Yes, zippity doo.

Should we be worried that Kimbrel didn’t get over 90mph on the first game of spring? ehh no sny are the most pesimistic broadcasters I’ve ever seen.
David O'Brien

For the record, Kimbrel’s one out was a strikeout of Zach Lutz, who had replaced David Wright.

Kimbrel will be fine. He’s probably just got jitters from all the expectations placed on him.

I think that if Freeman kills spring opponents he might be the number 7 hitter instead of the number 8. And if Alex Gonzalez struggles.
But I understand why he would be hesitant to that. Two lefties back to back in Heyward in Freeman might be a liability late in games.

Anthony Varvaro is interesting because of the past success getting players (specifically pitchers) from Seattle off waivers. Eric O’Flaherty & Jorge Campillo comes to mind.

I’m currently multitasking with the Braves on my computer and the WGC-Accenture Match Play on the TV. Georgia Tech Yellow Jacket Matt Kuchar is playing one semi-final while UGA Bulldog Bubba Watson in the other semi-final. If both win, that’d make for a heck of a final.

One thing I love about Spring Training is that there are always a few guys who come into camp and make a showing. You don’t know anything about them. Then, an injury here, a bad performance there, and some young’un makes his MLB debut.
Venters was that guy last year. I wonder if someone like a Constanza or Marek will be that guy this year.
Marek gets a strike out for the first out.

OK, that was bad.
