As a unified team we walked together to our visiting club room to change. I already had my jersey on under my sweatshirt so I didn't bother taking it off just yet. Mid-March is still cold, especially in Northern California. I focused on getting my cleats on as everyone else did their own thing to get pumped.
Coach gave another speech about taking this seriously even with missing pieces like Zeke and Julian. He told the pitchers to all report to the bullpen after warmups so they can discuss a more detailed plan with the pitching coach.
Mahki then led us out, taking over captain duties that belonged to Zeke. We warmed up like any time before, moving with all seriousness that coach expected us to have.
Going to the Angel game tonight! I’ll try my best to be on time for tomorrow...but you guys know me well ;)
