The news this week is that there is none out there. This is the week Spring Training begins. Finally!



Random Spring Training Facts I found this week 
How many boxes of each of these do the Texas Rangers send to Arizona for Spring Training? (Roughly 6 weeks) 

Boxes of Sunflower Seeds: 30 
Tubs of Gum: 60 
 Number of Dozen baseballs: 1,800 (21,600 individual baseballs!)



The only article of interest includes the quote:
 "Perhaps the biggest issue facing the Rangers will be to figure out on which fingers their World Series rings will go."
This taken from ESPN who thinks the Rangers are the best team going into the next five years when you look at the franchise overall. 
Rangers best Franchise over next five years




On a personal note I have now purchased MLB.TV so every spring training game and then every season game after will be available to me at the click of a button. So excited!


Have a fabulous week baseball fans!

MLB.TV would be awesome if Rangers games weren't blacked out. You will still be able to watch your beloved Cards though.

Yes, but they archive an hour later, and I"m never around to watch them anyway. I'll be able to watch every single one. I'm happy enough with that.
