In Arizona, not Oklahoma

Tony Pena Junior is working the count and walking. Maybe we should re-visit the idea of teaching our stubborn dog some new tricks. (Or maybe we should authorize eye surgery for the dumb dog.)

Other guys who have impressed through two games in Surprise against the Rangers (in no particular order): Butler, Jacobs, Olivo, Buck, Crisp, Davies, Kila.

Not so much: Teahen (OMG) and Gordon.

Gordon will probably have a really good year, but we bet he leads the league in watching called third strikes. It's going to drive us crazy.

Josh Hamilton will be in the top three in the MVP voting.

That is all.

Except for this: We can't stand to watch another season of Teahen trying to find his groove, regardless of what position he plays. Moneyball is one of our favorite players, but he's killing us.

P.S. This team is going to have more power than we've seen in KC in a long time (ever?). Having said that, the ball goes boom in Arizona.
