Can you believe it? They played baseball yesterday! (The Jays open their Grapefruit League campaign tomorrow vs. Tampa). The importance of spring box scores isn't "who's hot and who's not" -- that part's meaningless -- but "who's playing and who's not". Nice to see guys like Alex Sanchez and Geoff Jenkins returning from serious injuries, and I notice Randy Johnson is still pretty good.
Here's the ESPN Scoreboard -- it's a good place to check all the scores, even while games are in progress. There's a link to each box score and/or game story, and the "sidebar" in the middle is handy for stats and schedules; during the regular season it's also as accurate as any for pitching probables.
This is the LAST DAY for Batter's Box at this address. The move is going so well, I'm inviting you to take a sneak preview of our new home, where the blog will be "live" by early Saturday morning. Our location should be easy to remember -- http://www.battersbox.ca -- and we'll be adding more features at the new site as time permits. You will see a test message there, plus the full BB archives up to Feb. 18, entry #250. Feel free to comment on the test message, though it will be deleted overnight. Or come back here and let us know what you think. Oh, and thanks for pushing us past 25,000 hits this week -- these milestones always remind me how grateful I am for everyone's participation.
