What a surprise

What a surprise when I stumble on a Blue Wahoos telecast today and lo and behold who is playing for the Rocket City Trash Pandas. Preston Palmeiro. Just have to love this man still playing AA ball at 27 years old. Playing for the love of the game.

P.S. Two of my favorite sports team names: the Rocket City Trash Pandas and coming in slightly ahead of that the Binghamton Rumble Ponies. And of course we all know who donned that uniform last season.

I'm shocked he's still in affiliated baseball below AAA at that age. That's like being the Julio Franco of AA.

No doubt Todd. When I heard the name Palmeiro I thought for sure it was someone else with the same surname.
