Going around the Spring Training horn:
* The Jays cut most of their top prospects, but still had great things to say about each of them. Surprisingly, David Bush is still with the big club, although he got hit hard yesterday.
* Speaking of which, the Jays dropped a 9-4 decision against the Red Sox. Justin Miller started and pitched 3 scoreless innings. It'll be interesting to see how he fits in the organziation's plans.
* Apparently tattoos are distracting to hitters. Justin Miller had to wear a long sleeve shirt yesterday to cover up his. If this is permanent this is rediculous. How is a tattoo distracting to a hitter? It's not like it's going to make the ball harder to see, or shines like an earring might.
You know what I think is a distraction and should be protested? Pedro Martinez's oversized sleeves. He's been doing it for years. What's going to hide a ball better, a tattoo on the skin, or a white flapping jersey sleeve?
* Sun Notes from yesterday's game.
* A quick article on Cat's back. Short story short: Last year he was worried but things worked out, this year he's not worried but has lots of exercises to do to keep it that way.
* Roy Halladay faces the Tigers today who start Gary Knotts.
