    Seems like Bruce is going to need to have a MONSTER spring to have any shot of making the team out of ST... and even then I'm not really sure if it can happen, b/c he needs to play every day and it appears the Reds are pretty much decided on who will be their CFers.

    Do they usually use a DH in ST games that involve two NL teams? I don't remember that from the past.
    Interesting to see the two phenoms batting back to back. Also I hope if Bruce has a monster spring that he makes the team. That would be a very bad disservice to him and the team if he didn't.

    I don't either. A few times the Reds asked permission to do it so Jr. could get ABs and not play the field but otherwise I don't remember that happening.

    IIRC they are allowed to use the DH early in ST but need to get permission to do it later in the Spring

    Maybe they are just getting Bruce reps in RF? He's the likely replacement there if Junior gets hurt.

    It may only be the first game of spring training, but I'm pumped to flip on the radio in about 90 minutes and finally have a chance to listen to some live baseball.

    You can try WLW's web site but I don't know if it will be on.

    I have had some luck in the past with www.athensi.com. Click on the WATH link. If you can spring for it you should get the MLB.com audio. It's only $14.95 a year and that includes every regular season MLB game. Although not all spring traiing games are broadcast. I just got it yesterday for the upcoming season.

    Incidentally, one way to get MLB.TV/Gameday Audio for cheap is to sign up for the MLB Extra Bases credit card. Make a couple purchases, wait until your first statement... then you should get 10,000 points to redeem. It says you get a $50 MLB shop gift card, but what you actually get are points to redeem in the Extra Bases rewards program.

    Guess what costs 10,000 points?

    A season-long subscription to MLB.TV and Gameday Audio. Normal retail value is like $90, I think. The only problem is that the delay in getting the points in your reward account might push you past Opening Day a tad.

    0% APR for 12 months is pretty nice, as well- otherwise it's a pretty mediocre card, but most savvy credit users know how to flip balances between cards so you never pay interest.
