Busy, busy, busy

This will be the busiest week of the offseason for new Wild Things manager Darin Everson. Affiliated minor-league teams made their final cuts either over last weekend or early this week, so it's now a feeding frenzy for the independent league managers, who are sifting through the releases to find players who fit their league and team.

Everson and his coaching staff will be in Washington on Thursday and Friday – just in time for the rain and cold front. The Wild Things will host a media luncheon Thursday, and a tryout camp for released pro players on Friday (weather permitting).

Pitching will likely attract much of Everson's attention. Washington has announced the signing of only three pitchers: right-handers Zach Groh, Andy Schindling and Rob Hedrick.

THE LACK OF COMMENTS ON THIS BLOG TELLS ME THE HONEYMOON IS OVER FOR THE MILD-THINGS. I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE WHAT PROMOTIONS THEY COME UP WITH TO SELL A TICKET.

I agree with Dr. Miller, however, I am also thinking that the fans are using a wait and see attitude. Hopefully, the new staff can once again make the Wildthings a thriving asset to out community.

Well, Dr. Miller how about joining us all on July 29th for Corn Hole Day.
I hope your specialty is proctology, or however it is spelled!

If Franni would have thought of this last year then the WT would have made a ton of money.
