Spring Training

Spring Training is a very interesting time. You get to see the stars relax and the young stars go all out trying to earn that last spot on the 25 man roster. Every now and then we get to see some young Iowa star vie for a spot on the roster. Other than that I do not take anything out of spring training or pay any attention to it. So, when I saw this list in Sports Illustrated I had to post it.

Signs That Your Manager Is Taking Spring Training Too Seriously:
1. He starts using the phrase, "Get out there and put a Shelley Duncan on him."
2. He appeals the ceremonial first pitch.
3. He puts the shift on for Billy Crystal.
4. After every home run by an opposing team, he tosses a copy of the Mitchell Report onto the field.
5. He brings in conditioning coach Chuck Norris.
6. He gets in a pregame scuffle with now Texas Rangers president Nolan Ryan.
7. He yells at base runner Prince Fielder, "You're a fatty, who's your daddy?"
8. He tells reporters, "We're just taking these meaningless exhibitions one game at a time."
