Wild Pitches
Yeah, it has been slow around here. Sorry for the infrequent posts.
I have read a few baseball books over the last month or two, but I really didn't care for them, so I won't be putting up reviews. Its been one of those months.....
At least the Grapefruit and Cactus Leagues are about to get going! Whew!
I try to avoid rehashing stuff from other blogs or sites, but I thought this was pretty interesting. Here is an article about the way Topps baseball cards is handing references to Pete Rose these days.

Erasmo Ramirez- 2003-2005 Rangers, 2007 A's and Marlins
Erasmo Ramirez sent me a very nice note recently answering some questions!
He let me know that he was a big San Francisco Giants fan growing up. Will Clark was his favorite player. He says that his friends in SoCal gave him some flak about that, but he didn't mind.
He still follows his former teams, especially the Rangers and he has friends still in their front office.
I asked Erasmo specifically about the stadium situation during his time in Nashville. He says it was, "HORRIBLE!"
He says that there was no clubhouse, and they had to shuttle to the stadium from the Titans stadium every game!
He says that his favorite book is "The Godfather" and his favorite baseball book is Dorfman's "The Mental Game of Baseball."

Wild Pitches
Hey, check out this article from West Virginia's Bridgeport News! It looks like there is some serious talk of a Frontier League team setting up shop in the area! If you are in the central or eastern part of Kentucky, this might be a nice weekend trip to think about! I am glad to see the Frontier League coming back to some of their earlier territories!

Also, a new independent league is taking shape for the 2014 season. There is some talk of a northern Kentucky team in this league!
