One more day til spring training games begin. Several teams are talking about building new stadiums. Vancouver, Hoboken, Newark, and Arkansas are all using different stadiums for their spring training facilities than last year's facilities. Will Newark return to their crazy Coors Field-esque stadium? Sugar Bears management is still considering the matter.
Meanwhile, Arkansas drew Newark GM/Owner Butch Garretson's ire when they invited outfielder Jeff DaVanon to camp. DaVanon was expecting to at least be a supplemental pick, but was passed over by Newark. "When they left me off the protected list, that kind of hurt my feelings, but I understand it's a business" said DaVanon in a press conference. "But after watching round after round go by, I started fuming." And what better way to exact revenge on the Sugar Bears than by signing with their arch-rivals? Garretson would not leave a comment, only muttering "damn Stump" on his way to the team clubhouse this morning.
