Slow
Yes, I have been slow to write lately. Anna is playing All-Star soccer and is also playing softball. Zac is playing T-ball and had his first game this past Saturday. Plus, I am training for a marathon in September (see in St. Charles) and running as many 5 Ks as I can. So sorry I’ve been slow but sometimes life gets in the way.
I love that the Cardinals have gotten off to a fast start. I am not so happy with the way they’ve done it. This team needs to catch the ball. You know as well as I do that if a team can catch it, it can’t win consistently.
The more I study the prospects in this year’s draft, the more unsure I am of how things will play out. I do believe at 19 there will be a power arm to be selected. I was sure that Mike Leake of Arizona State would be the man. I now don’t believe he will be on the board when the Cardinals pick. He might not be a power arm but remember the name Mike Minor.
One of my preseason faves, D.J. Lemahieu could be sliding down draft boards after being moved to second base. The LSU Tiger loses a lot of value if he is not able to handle shortstop.
