    After spending almost their entire existence at Kauffman Stadium, the Royals will be building a new ballpark in downtown Kansas City. The Royals will celebrate their 50th anniversary at Kauffman this April. 

    Progressive Field will start another large, multi-year renovation soon.

    It was the 30th anniversary of the boat wreck that took Steve Olin and Tim Crew's life during spring traing, 1993. 

    I was at the Opener at Cleveland Stadium a week or so later. The late player's wives were on hand, there weren't a lot of dry eyes that day. That also was the last season at Cleveland Stadium.

    I remember that quite well and Mike  "Groover" Hargrove vowed something like that would not be allowed in the future with the days off in the schedule. 

    It was a big blow to the Cleveland INDIANS that season.

    The GUARDIANS should have a killer hitting lineup ALL YEAR !   Decent fielding, and of course AN OUTSTANDING pitching lineup ! 

    Favorites to win the AFCN and beyond.
