The coming season might see trouble ahead if the level of performance is not risen!

There is a big gap between the philosophical approach of a thirsty for success rookie and the attitude of a superstar to performance in professional baseball; I can tell you that much. Indeed, it is a fact that a great number of Major League Baseball players contribution to the cause of their team is not always good enough and certainly not the one which the fans expect from their idols as far too often they seem to be more concern about what they are paid than the reason for what they are paid, which ought to amount to give their all for their teams during games. The word Prima donna come to mind when I think about those ballplayers as I define their input as muchly too little for what they get paid. Having said that I recognise that some players earned their wages last season as their perform showed but I am sure that if last season level of permanence does not improve this coming season the fans will let them know about it since the fans' patience is not inexhaustible and their frazzled edges will soon begin to show. I don't run a bush telegraph but it has been said that a huge number of fans get steamed up about the negligence and inefficiency on the field of playing and which they are being forced to put up with and I certainly don't blame them. Enough is enough, says I.
