Now Warming Up in the Bullpen…
January 20th, 2008 by Wyatt
My Seahawks disappointment has been assuaged. I have been keeping distant tabs on the upcoming baseball season while I watch the unexpectedly exciting Blazers, but the time is nearing. Pitchers and catchers will be reporting next month and opening day for the Mariners will be March 31. Interestingly, the official opening day will be on March 25 when the Red Sox meet the Athletics in Tokyo.
I only mention that because both Boston and Oakland are in my Rotisserie league for which I’m getting excited again. My enthusiasm has spiked earlier than usual this year due to reading a very fun book about the hobby called Fantasyland by Sam Walker. I would recommend this book anyone even vaguely interested in the sport as it is both informative and insightful to the casual fan and a very familiar ride to those who have played. A great book has me wound up and raring to read up on the 25-man rosters for all of our eligible teams. I’ll have to be on my toes if I want to go for the three-peat!
