With our cutdown (Tuesday) ordsprog

en With our cut-down (Tuesday), we are getting closer and closer to what some things are supposed to look like. The tone of the games now in spring training has changed a little bit due to the fact that some of the regular guys are staying around a little bit longer.

en I think Barry Bonds was in a unique situation given his injuries from a year ago, the fact that he played in just 14 games.
