Off Season

I’ve been meaning to post this picture for quite a while now….yah, since about March 2008. So sue me, I forgot.  This is Seattle Mariner Ryan Rowland-Smith with Flat Jessi.  You remember Flat Jessi don’t you?  Flat Jessi was a project from a little girl in Ohio.  We showed Jessi the following places, Seattle, Spring Training, Argentina and Uruguay and then we mailed her back home.    Here she is with her favorite Mariner.

Flat Jessi and Ryan

Flat Jessi and Ryan

 While we were in Arizona for Spring Training  earlier this year, we had the opportunity to visit with a few of the pitchers from the Seattle Mariners as well as a couple of the “On Air” personalities.  We were still on a mission with Flat Jessi so we captured a few shots with the talent.  Sad to say I hadn’t really watched any baseball since spring training until last night, when I saw Jamie Moyer pitch a few innings for the Phillies.  Yes on the TV.  Don’t get me wrong I like baseball, I just don’t take the time to watch. I did listen a few times during the season.  So last night was a double bonus TV and baseball. 

I did have lunch the other day at Safeco field.  Ichiro was playing short stop with a bunch of his friends but I failed to get a picture.  The speaker at our lunch was the person in charge of player development (who’s name I can’t recall) and he said that Ryan Rowland-Smith is the best prospect for Mariners pitching next year.  That’s cool!  Go Ryan…

Just a little about me

This blog was started so I could practice writing. As you see, I'm still practicing. I write, when I have time about stuff I see, hear or think about. Contact me at carlaecland at comcast dot net if you have to.
