Spring Training is here, we have three new and exciting players. Here's a bit about each of them:
Jeff Samardzija (I can actually spell it now without looking) comes to us from the Chicago White Sox. He's a right handed pitcher and will be in the starting rotation. (Career ERA: 4.09) His nickname is The Shark, so now we'll have two sharks (Gregor Blanco = The White Shark).
Johnny Cueto, from the reigning World Champion Kansas City Royals, is also a right handed pitcher and will join the starting rotation as well. (Career ERA: 3.30) Buster has said he is really happy not to be facing either of these two while at bat!
Denard Span, formerly of the Washington Nationals, will be taking over duties in center field (Angel Pagan will move to left field). He had a great time talking to Willie Mays, who apparently refers to him as "Bernard." And Span is totally fine with that. Wouldn't you be? (Career batting avg: .287)
So who's pumped about this season? Let's Go Giatns!! #evenyear
