MLB Network's "30 Clubs in 30 Days"on the Brewers aired last night, and I forgot to video tape it on my VHS. Which stinks because in years past the station would title the show "30 Club/30 Days" on the channel guide so one could set it up to record. Now the past 2 or 3 years they have listed under Baseball Tonight which is their daily show. So you can't plan ahead to record the Brewers special because all you see when you check out their show guide is "Baseball Tonight" and not "30 Days/30 Clubs: Brewers". Get what I am saying? It's not easy to schedule your recording of the program, which is first world struggles at its finest. My guess is that the Brewers were picked to finished 3rd again with only Plesac probably feeling good about them. But we'll see....
It was nice to read about Jim Henderson pitching yesterday for the first time since May 2nd of last year. Henderson walked 1 and struck out 2 batter. I am still very unsure of where he will fit in with this pen, but it isn't a bad problem to have two back-up options to close out games heading into the regular season.
Because you all just love having this brought up on a weekly basis, Biogenesis main man Tony Bosch was handed a 4 year prison term last month for his services provided to major league players. Despite him signing to the feds about his drug dealing, the money continued to flow to him through different avenues and means, if you get my drift. To show what a slime bucket he was:
"Bosch wasn't exactly staying in Motel 6 as he snitched on his ex-clients. In fact, last year he signed leases for one apartment on exclusive Fisher Island, while his girlfriend rented a $700,000 downtown condo."
"....The leases are the latest proof that Bosch took money that Major League Baseball had agreed to provide for his legal team and security detail and, instead, spent it on a luxury lifestyle, says the attorney who introduced the new docs."
You can read the details HERE by the Miami New Times story that was released yesterday. It's a very good read and you will snicker at just how dirty Mr. Bosch was.
In our weekly special "Man, do I miss that guy" here is a cool little piece on Prince Fielder. I hope he rebounds this year for the Rangers. Yea yea, it sucked to see him leave but if you did not see that coming at the time, you need to slap yourself. Hopefully his neck injury is behind and he is ready to have a huge year. I would also never count out him returning to Milwaukee near the end of his career.
Gallardo on rejoining his old teammate:
“He seems like the same guy from what I remember in Milwaukee,” said right-hander Yovani Gallardo, a Brewers teammate of Fielder from 2007 to 2011. “He’s always worked hard, and I think that’s why he’s had a good career."
On a side note, I'm still wondering to myself why the hell Doug Melvin traded Gallardo and not get another pitcher in return or in a trade? It seems to me they are almost too high on Jimmy Nelson, but we shall see.
