A Christmas Story - Of Sorts

It was the night before Spring Training. Not a creature was sturring, not even an annoying pick-up with an "NY" sticker plastered on its back.

Visions of 2004 & 2007 danced in my head. On Youk, on Pedroia & Big Papi rang a Christmas bell. On Gonzo, on Crawford & Saltie as well.

As I watched Theo, Tito & players move out of sight to Fort Myers, I heard George Steinbrenner's voice say "Merry Christmas to all" & "my boys are getting coal this year."

Happy holidays! 2 months to Spring Training...
