And so the Season Comes to a Close
The postseason is over. The World Series Trophy has a new home in St. Louis.
The question is there… right in front of your face. What do I do until February 15th? (Because of course, we all know that is when pitchers and their catchers arrive at spring training.)
The answer is that there is plenty. Personally I am waiting to see how my boy Andruw does in the Japan All-Star Series which starts in just four more days.
There are plenty of big name free agents out there, and most likely soon to be even more. Player activity is always fun to watch in the off-season. Seeing how your team will perform with their new acquisition and or lose of a player. The Winter Meetings should provide for some juicy trades this year.
There are plenty of teams out there that can’t afford big loses, and others that need to recover from the same type of loses from a year ago if they want to pull themselves off the ground and make a run at their respective divisions next season.
2007 isn’t far off, and neither is the 07′ season (If you have the incessant need to see how many days/hours are left until the season sees its first pitch you can give Al’s countdown clock a visit at his Cubs/Baseball blog). And in the off time, sit back, get some of that work done that has been piling up as you were glued to the TV and the playoff games it contained and keep an ear out for interesting trade rumors.
