Firstly, the final Comic Caption winner of the '10-'11 offseason: Xidash. Expect comic captions to return after the 2011 World Series. BTW, Sumiki and Legolover-361 tied for first in the CCCs with 3 wins apiece.
Secondly, as Spring Training rolls on in, so does some new features to the BaseBlog. First, is a new name: BaseBlog: Spring Training, and secondly, 30 Clubs in 30 Days.
30 Clubs, 30 Days is a ripoff based on MLB Network's 30 Clubs in 30 Days preseason television show, which starts on March 3 with the Detroit Tigers in Lakeland, Florida, home of the Lakeland Flying Tigers A+ minor league affiliate of the Detroit Tigers. My version of 30 Clubs in 30 Days, however, will include a daily blog entry about each MLB team, in preview of the 2011 season. However, to make it more interesting, which team I write about first will be up to the BZPers. I will match up two teams daily (preferably rivals) and you can vote for which one you want to read about most. To start off, I'll pit the World Champion San Francisco Giants against their longtime rivals--even when they were on the other side of the nation--the Los Angeles Dodgers. Vote by commenting in this entry.
Finally, some news on Albert Pujols. Today was his deadline for the Cardinals to try to sign an extension with him, but no agreement was made, and now the Cardinals will only have the five days following the end of the 2011 World Series to have exclusive negotiating rights with the man who is widely considered to be the greatest player in the game right now. Following those five days, other money-heavy teams like the Mets, Rangers, Dodgers, Angels, and perhaps a few less wealthy dark horse teams will try to lure Prince Albert away from the Cardinal red. In the meantime, Both Pujols and the Cardinals will have to focus on spring training in Jupiter, Florida, in the home of their A+ minor league affiliate, the Palm Beach Cardinals.
