Don't know if this is the place to make note, but here goes...Just got back from watching practice at the Ft. Myers facility. In addition to the pitchers doing the drills pitchers do at this time of year,  I noted Pedroia, Youk, Ellsbury, Hermida and Bill Hall as major leaguers; Lowrie, Lars, Daeges, Reddick, Kalish, Bates, and Navarro all taking batting practice. Hall, Kalish and most notably Navarro put on power displays. Navarro does not look like a shortstop anymore....He has filled out and looks rugged. At least today he had big power. Kalish also looks bigger in the legs and shoulders from what I remembered from seeing him in Portland, Me. last summer. I recall there was talk of him having the capability to play center. His body though is evolving into that of a corner outfielder. He was wearing an ace bandage on one wrist/lower forearm. Jacoby was raking line drives, mostly to right. Lars looked like he did last spring...long smooth stroke but he doesn't seem to have that extra bat speed that really drives a ball, especially for a guy his size. Lowrie was not wearing any protection or support on his wrist.  Pedroia looks trim. Theo was in the house watching batting practice.

Pitchers were drilling covering first on balls hit to the right side and fielding bunts down first and third base lines. I saw Kelly for the first time and he is pretty tall...a rangy looking guy like most 20 year olds....but not skinny.  Interestingly as pitchers were divided among the various fields, the five-some of Beckett, Lester, Lackey, Matsusaka and Wakefield were together. Buchholz was with another group. Maybe this was in deference to Wake. I did not see anyone throwing today.
