Gday fans…
The season is finally under way and we have gotten off to the perfect 3-0 start. I think we have already shown that our hard work in spring training was truly worth it. Obviously we have 141 games still to play but I think we can all see that the combination of our new players and healthy veterans will make us a team we can take to the pennant this year. Our line-up looks very strong and I expect that having Kanemoto healthy and adding Arai takes some pressure off and lets us relax and play our natural game a little more. I think we will manufacture a lot more runs this year as a result.Our starting pitching will definitely determine our fate for this season and we have some great depth coming out of camp. Three fantastic performances so far and with pitchers the caliber of Vogelsong, Kanemura, and Uezona just waiting in ni-gun for their opportunity to start, you know we are feeling good about our chances.It was great to be able to get out there and pitch in our season opener. It’s good to get the first one out of the way so you can calm your nerves and just pitch the rest of the year.I am hoping for my best season yet and promise I’ll do my best every day.
We are off to Hiroshima tomorrow for a week long road trip so I had better spend a little quality time with my family now. Sorry for the short message but here’s to hoping we come back to Osaka with 2 more series victories. I will write again soon.
Thanks for all your continued support. I’m honored to be a Hanshin Tiger.
Cheers
Jeff
