It’s too bad Billy Beane couldn’t have waited a week to trade Kirk Saarloos. The A’s Fan Fest is coming up on Saturday, and it would have been nice to have Saarloos around. Last year, of all the people who appeared in Q&A sessions, Saarloos was probably the most entertaining of them all. The dude may not have a sharp fastball, but he does have a sharp wit.
I have plans to attend Fan Fest again this year. If anyone else is going, and wants to meet up, let me know.
1. My favorite time. Love to watch the guys walking around the field like it is their office. Ball tossing. Jogging. Stretching. Joking. Then they start to get their game faces on. Amazing to watch them warm up in the outfield, playing catch from long distances.
2. Chapter the Thirty-Sixth: In which our man Kirk intends a liesurely stroll but instead discovers an ambuscade.
