Moving Day
Well sad days are inevitable, this one being that this blog is moving. Don’t cry, it’s not moving far, but to update your bookmarks (Yes I know you all check this site every moment you can get) here is the new address.
If you’re wondering, I’m making the move for a couple of reasons..
1. Coverage of more teams- Though baseball will always be my favorite, I am a fan of many other sports, and this blog will allow me to cover more teams, in addition to giving an outlet to blog about Ohio University sports.
2. Resume builder- On the WordPress site, I can keep track of all my clippings for easy reference.
3. This site’s title is redundant- This offseason I went from being a rich high school kid with some change to a college student making tuition payments. I had to move from my home in 316 to a cheaper option in 329.
I’d like to thank all the readers. I would have never thought I would have gotten as much traffic as I did in my time here. Hope you will all stop over and hear what I got to say. I’d really appreciate it.
Thanks again,
Steve
Recap: Jays vs Pirates 3-6-11
Thanks to the miracle of MLB.TV, I was able to enjoy today’s game with the rest of Pirate nation. It wasn’t much of a game, but here are my thoughts in typical bullet point fashion.
-The Pirates sent out James McDonald to the bump. He struggled in the first inning, throwing 29 pitches and giving up two runs. He would settle down in the next two innings. His curveball was especially on in the last two innings. That thing is nasty.
-Love Corey Wimberly but I have my doubts about him making the team. His fielding is suspect for a shortstop and even routine throws turned into a challenge.
-Ricky Romero was the starter for the Jays and promptly mowed down the Bucs. He had a great season in 2010, and looks to be on track for a good 2011.
-Pedro appears to be in mid-season form hitting wise. Had half of the team’s hits going 2-3. His discipline still needs some work, but I have a feeling it will come.
-Pedro’s bad defense at 3rd was on display today. He booted a hard hit ball right at him, and plenty of errors are probably in the cards. As long as he’s hitting I can deal with it.
-Joel Hanrahan dominated in his inning today. Justin Thompson, Justin Wilson, and Jeff Locke also looked very good today.
-I hate Jose Bautista. He tore the Buccos up today going 3-3 with two doubles.
-Prospect Gift Ngoepe got an at-bat in the 9th as a pinch hitter. Love seeing some time for everyone’s favorite South African.
-Today’s dreadful game was made a lot better since I took part in the live blog on raisethejollyroger.com. If you aren’t taking part in the great discussions there, you’re missing out.
Next game is on TV thursday night. Hopefully I’ll catch it and have some more ramblings.
