My First Blog

This is my first blog and really I could not have picked a better day to start. I really witnessed an amazing thing today while visiting my grandparents grave for the last time before I left for Texas. It was one of those times when you knew your voice was heard and that the ones you love will always be by your side.

It's t-minus 10 days away before I head to El Paso again. My how the offseason flies by! The team has taken quite a different form this season as only four of 22 returners head back to the Sun City this year. A couple of my good buddies, including both of my roomates, have moved on. There appears to be much more Latins on the team this year. I have found Latin players to be great people and have enjoyed playing with them. Especially in a city like El Paso, it is great to have those guys on your team. I am excited to see the many fans that treated me so well last summer but at the same time will miss my family and friends here.
