- Lastings Milledge went 2-2 this afternoon and is now hitting .406 this Spring. He also stole base #5. Get him while you can.
- Adam Jones hit 6th today. Given his inexperience, I can see him beginning the season here behind Kevin Millar and Aubrey Huff. Those two players say it all about where I think he will finish in the order.
- Carlos Gomez was 0-3 and is now hitting .167 this Spring. Denard Span replaced him and went 1-1 with his third SB. He is batting .267,
- Jorge Cantu started at 1B this afternoon. Unfortunately, the incumbent hits from the left side, but multi-postion flexibility is never a bad thing.
- Ryan Doumit hit 5th today while starting at catcher. I sense he is going to be a nice sleeper at a scarce position. Doumit for a $1 as a second catcher isn't so bad.
- Johan Santana pitched four shutout innings with 4 Ks against the Pawtucket Red Sox. Sorry, that was the Red Sox split squad team.
- Randy Johnson made his Spring 2008 debut. So did the Angels' John Lackey. Neither effort was noteworthy beyond that.
- Mariners' rookie Wladimir Balentien went 4-5 with a SB. I expect him to be a quality free agent pick-up this season in very deep leagues.
- The Yankees' AAA CF Brett Gardner drew a walk against the Reds' Homer Bailey.
