I write these great blog entries....and then at the end....something happens and half of what I have written disappears. The last blog entry I wrote was about the Blue Claws. A local minor league baseball that actually won a championship a year or two ago.
I have seen Howie Kendrick, Jimmy Rollins and Ryan Howard. Howie Kendrick is now with the Padres. Ryan Howard, that boy could hit. In person he was massive and I thought he had real soft hands at first base. Last night I saw a Right Fielder. His name was Matt Brown. Watch Him. Another guy, Bolt looks real promising.
I was there with a friend of mine a few weeks ago and it turns out that several of their players had already moved up to AA ball. I cannot recall their names but I remember one of them, looking like a superstar.
I will never be a huge Phillies fan. I used to be a Mets fan. My Dad and I would talk Mets baseball frequently. Then after the 1990 season they traded Lenny Dykstra to the Philles and they lost me. I thought it was a boneheaded move. The Mets didn't see the playoffs and a year or two later, Dykstra joined John Kruk in a World Championship that the "Wild Thing" lost.
Soon I will be moving to Blogger. So keep coming and I will post a link to my new site.
Peace
