Here are some early Spring Training notes to report.
- Pablo Sandoval is 8-17 with 2 homers in 6 games.
- Saltalamacchia is working with the starting lineup and is 7-12 in the early going. He is the early favorite for the majority of ABs.
- Michael Bourn has taken 4 walks in 20 PAs. Probably a fluke, but an increase in BB% would make him a great improvement.
- Matt Wieters is 3-9 with his first homer already. I'm hoping he makes the Orioles choice a tough one.
- The exhibition game stats are not being counted on MLB stats. Keep an eye on these games as these games should be valuable for younger players fighting for a roster spot against some of the best in the world.
- The MLB Network has made life much more enjoyable in March for us in New England weather.
