PrintSpring Training Pictures March 21, 2009
So I went to Disney and didn't bother with the Major League game - not because it wasn't interesting, but because the minor league fields were much more interesting to me. We got to see Jo Jo Reyes and James Parr pitch back to back on one field, while prospects like Eric Campbell and Kala Ka'aihue were playing on the next field over. Meanwhile several Braves pitching prospects were just wandering around taking things in - Scott Diamond, Ryne Reynoso, and Zeke Spruill come to mind as a few we saw. The minor league Braves were playing the Nationals minor leaguers, so we also had a Pete Orr and Ryan Langerhans sighting. Incidentally, Langerhans is one tall dude.
Overall a good day. Here are a few shots. Nothing too interesting. Just sharing. Enjoy!
This is sort of the scene at the minor league fields. Ryne Reynoso is at the table, and Zeke Spruill is the guy standing in the blue and yellow striped shirt. Others of you may be able to identify the other guys.
Kurt Kemp watching the troops.
Jo Jo throws a pitch
....and so does James Parr.
JC Holt hitting
Gorkys Hernandez gets ready to steal. Which he did, by the way.
Jeff Lyman pitching
And gondee's #1 prospect, Kevin Gunderson
That's it for this spring. More when Rome and Gwinnett get going....

My pictures are horrible, because I’m not cool enough to get 5 feet away from players. However, Houston did give me this golden ticket.
Pure bliss

I had one of them in the outfield in Orlando, but it was blurry so I chucked it. They must’ve become pals…what’s Freddie going to think?

The funny thing about this JC Holt picture? It’s actual size.

Your camera is made of Vasoline. But naw, good stuff man. I tagged some for a few of the guys.

Keep in mind, nearly none of those pics were taken as I was sitting down…most of the time I had a beer in my other hand. And in Houston, I also had a ball to contend with.

Haha, is that the ball that you claim to have caught without your glove?

Sitting down, caught with my left hand, with my camera in my right hand. And my dad was taking a walk then, so no one can vouch for me.

Then it didn’t really happen.

Hey, at least I went to a game instead of watching practice begging to get a manhug from Charlie Morton

That’s just jealousy talking.

I pretty much always assume all of your activities are done with a beer in at least one hand.

I wish we could get more of these. It’s awesome to see pics/players for those of us who don’t make it down to ST. Thanks for sharing!

I appreciate the compliments and the rec's, everybody!
When Rome and Gwinnett get going (especially Rome), I’ll post a lot more.
Can’t wait for the season….
