Clearing the decks

Lots of stuff has backed up over the last few days. One omnibus post to cover them all...

First, get thee over to Mariner Minors. J has previews of the rosters of Tacoma, West Tennessee, High Desert, and the Timber Rattlers.

Here is the Tacoma News-Tribune preview article for the Rainiers.

The Jackson Sun has this preview article wrapped in a story about last night's game.

The Victor Valley News has a writeup on the High Desert scrimmage with Victor Valley College and a quick preview of the season.

The Post-Crescent has this from the scrimmage against Lawrence University and this from the LU perspective and a bit on Jamie Navarro.

By the way, as of this afternoon RattlersReport.com is taking you to a section of the Post-Crescent website that is not the Rattlers Report.

Three-peat is a word -- is it one word or two -- you may hear a lot around Grand Rapids, Michigan this year. You did not hear the words exhibition game, though. The field conditions canceled the game with Grand Valley State. Home Run Hitting Contest anyone?

Kane County wants a good start to the season.

Expecting betting things for the Great.Lakes.Loons.

A look at the Beloit Snapper opening day starter...Still applies...They got rained out last night.

Wizard manager learns some lessons this spring.

How would a politician/owner do in an exhibition game? What number would he wear? Guess?

The Bees have a new look on the field and off the field. Learn more about the new manager in Burlington.

There is a familiar face returning to Peoria. Oh, and Ryne Sandberg is back, too. Also, here is some interesting inside baseball stuff on someone who can't own a baseball team in the Bloomington-Normal, Illinois area.

Larry Stone on Mark Lowe ('05) and his comeback.

The Visalia Times has a preview of the California League.

Lastly, here is how a major league beat writer travels.



Thank you, Geoff. That is something almost nothing like how I travel.
