I can't wait for Spring. It's a time for hope and optimism. All that had happened the season before is like water under the bridge, and you can be sure that something new will emerge. This coming March we'll have a whole new cast of characters manning the dugout, giving orders and navigating the seas. And you can be assured that there will be plenty of changes on the bench, as well. What will transpire over the coming months is sure to be a surprise, so I'll just sit back and watch, pontificate and hope for Spring.
