As you probably noticed, we had some downtime today due to ever increasing traffic. So thanks for that, I think. Now that that’s been resolved — mostly, I’m still working to improve — and we’re behind schedule, let’s quickly acknowledge that the Dodgers are playing two simultaneous games and have zero of their expected starting outfielders in — Matt Kemp makes his spring debut at DH, Carl Crawford has been slowed by nerve irritation in his left arm and may not be ready for Opening Day, and Andre Ethier was scratched with a blister — to get to the lineups. The game in Tempe against the Angels is currently on Fox Sports West and will have Hyun-jin Ryu followed by Matt Palmer, Shawn Tolleson, Paco Rodriguez, and Chris Reed. Back at Camelback Ranch, the game is not televised, which is too bad — not only is Kemp in, but Zack Greinke is on the mound, and that game will also have Zach Lee. More to come later…
