Ah, it's good to be back in the swing of things. After a winter in which it seemed like interesting baseball news popped up with the frequency of Mike Kekich returning a phone call, we're back in the position of actually having too much to blog about. It'll be like that through the next eight months and we wouldn't have it any other way.
As we get into the 2011 season, I'd like to take a post each week to look back on the week just gone by. It's a good exercise to keep some perspective as we plow ahead through the year and a good way to point you toward some posts you might've missed. Remember that you can always keep closer tabs on us through Facebook and Twitter.
Among this week's highlights, we ...
• ... had the unbelievable privilege of interviewing Hank Aaron for our podcast.
... started our fourth annual spring swing by dispatching DB to the Cactus League.
• ... welcomed Rob Iracane, our newest Big League Steward, to the fold.
• ... took Iracane's list of Twitter do's and don'ts for baseball players to heart.
• ... celebrated the complete elimination of distractions from baseball.
• ... wondered why the Orioles handed Justin Duchscherer a misspelled jersey.
• ... flinched upon hearing the loss of Adam Wainwright to Tommy John surgery.
• ... queued up early for Chicago Cubs tickets because of Derek Jeter.
• ... asked Alex if Trevor Cahill can be a Cy Young contender in Oakland this season.
• ... were impressed by Mike Moustakas' knowledge of the great Royals before him.
• ... mulled the complexity of the Miguel Cabrera situation in Detroit's camp.• ... predicted a short leash for Brian Wilson if his season goes south like the life of his new pal, Charlie Sheen.
Stay tuned this weekend as Dave will continue his posts from the Cactus League. And come back hungry on Monday morning, when my week-long tour of the Grapefruit League (Gulf Coast edition) begins with a look at the Philadelphia Phillies.
