@PWSullivan: Garza not worried about injury. "Not as bad as I thought." Says arm felt fine. "Shouldn't be a big thing."

Brett posted some more video of Soler taking BP

Garza said he felt it on his 1st fastball from the stretch. He threw one more pitch & decided not to push it. Added that his arm felt fine.

"Will no more"?

 

That's embarrassing.

Paul Sullivan ‏@PWSullivan

Garza off to get MRI in next day. Jed says will put him back a little.

 

Plz just be them being very cautious.

 

David Kaplan ‏@thekapman

Hoyer: "we'll get some tests done in the next 24-48 hrs + make sure Garza is ok. His arm feels great but we want to make sure his side is ok

I stopped by Fitch Park today to catch practice. Here is a video of Brett Jackson's new swing as he takes batting practice.

Thanks!

 

Anything else to report?

 

Did you see Baez or Soler?

[PosterToBeNamedLater]

Here is Theo giving some autographs.

When Theo came by later and no one was around, I asked if there was any jobs in the organization for a calculus teacher. He laughed and said, "we aren't looking to teach our guys calculus right now."

I did see them. I took a vid of Soler in BP, but it wasn't a typical session. It was more game like. Carpenter was throwing to him and everything I have on the video is just of him taking the pitch. The one he ripped was when I wasn't recording. I caught the end of Baez taking swings but didn't get any video.

Here's a halfway decent picture for the people speculating about whether Castro got bigger this offseason or not.

Yea. I saw it on the sidebar when I watched the Jackson video. I totally meant to include that it was from your pics. My bad.

Here they are from behind (Castro and Soriano).

No problem. I read your first quote wrong. I thought you were saying people were using the photo to determine whether he got bigger. I was more just shocked that something I had just put up was already being used for speculation.

At first glance, I thought they were holding hands.

BFFs.

"You think we could flip this tree for a few prospects?"

"Maybe. Give Towers a call."

Remind Towers of a tree a young Jeter once owned
