It is so cool when Opening Day is upon us. I have done two drafts so far, and have one this week and then an auction in two. And that is one of the things I enjoy the most about playing fantasy ball. It expands both our friendships, and often the scope of our relationships.
Baseball breaks an awful lot of barriers.
Whereas I spent time at The Cactus League, Bill spent several days this week in Florida, mostly watching the Astros in Kissimmee. Let's start with some of his observations. My main interest is the Astros and their bats have fallen silent now that the regulars are getting more at-bats in preparation for opening day. Berkman is a real player and should be in the majors to stay before the end of the season. Lugo has been the big surprise.
