I don’t think there’s been a more boring offseason recently. There is almost nothing going on, and it’s sad when the big news so far is that the Astros signed Mike Hampton to a 1 year deal. Any bets on how long he’ll last…….. into spring training?

On kind of a sad note, Mike Mussina retired. I knew it was coming, but it was still kind of sad to see it on ESPN. It’s going to be strange not seeing him (and possible Andy Pettitte) in a Yankee uniform next year. (oh…. next year, come soon…)

I’m busy trying to get resumes ready to send out to the following teams Phillies, Rockies, Diamondbacks (minor leagues, I’ve already heard back from the big club) and Royals. I’m hoping I can get something. I have a job with a local team, but I want to get out of here… after this season of course, former Cardinal Jack Clark is the manager of our team

In the last few weeks, I’ve read two great baseball books, The 33-Year Old Rookie (written bu Phillies catcher Chris Coste) and Beyond Belief (written by Texas Rangers outfielder Josh Hamilton). I liked both players before, but after reading their books, I have more respect for them. Josh’s book gets a little bit graphic, but I think it was needed. I read both in about two days. 

There are 77 days until Pitchers and Catchers Day. I can’t wait!!!!!!
