Mike’s Sunday-night Picture Day post showed that, hey, for all the talk of the off-season, there’s nothing like seeing some baseball players. The posed photos were often hilarious, often awkward, and all in front of some nondescript background.

- Everyone loves a good run except for maybe Jason Giambi.

- Shelley!
Soon, very soon, the games start, and then it’s just a short jaunt until Opening Day. I’m ready.
