Thomas Boswell<\/strong> is like a kid on Christmas morning that just got a shiny new bike with a pixie stick dispenser or something. During the First Things First chat<\/a>, either Tracee Hamilton or Dave Shenin said it was the “most Boswellian Boswell column ever<\/a>” (The Post<\/em>) and they are probably correct. However, I don’t begrudge Boswell’s enthusiasm because having Washington Nationals spring training news is a reminder that spring is coming. That and the forecast that it will be over 70° today. It might be time for the first gin and tonic of 2011.<\/p>\n

Boswell is chatting at 1 p.m.<\/a> He’ll be very optmistic and probably ignore the Redskins\/Dan Snyder situation that I still haven’t blogged about because I’m still dumbfounded by it and don’t think I can come up with anything new.<\/p>\n

You know, Stephen Strasburg<\/strong> is throwing the ball up to you know, 45 feet for a few minutes at time, you know. Um, yay?<\/p>\n
