Spring Training Schedule

Some Baseball fans are having some trouble understanding the schedule of Speing Training, so I'm going to to a little simplification. Pitchers and Catchers reported last week for MLB Teams, this is because generally pitchers need more work then position players. Position Players are generally reporting now ( Yesterday till Tommorow). However some teams have position players report earlier or later. All workouts are generally light in this time of Spring Training, but by Saturday the workouts will turn into. Scrimages, which will turn into games. The first official Spring Training game will be this upcoming Tuesday, between a Major League and a college team. The first "real" game is this Wednesday. Teams are divided into two leagues, the Cactus (Arizona) and the Grapefruit
 ( Cactus).   Generally teams that play in the West divisions are in the Cactus, while teams that play in eastern divison  are in the Grapefruit league. Teams that play in the central are usally split. Spring Training games generally run through March 26th, when teams go to the stadium that they play in for Opening Day. Some play exhibition games in Major League parks the preceding nights. The only exception to the rule is the Sydney Opening series, actual MLB Regular season games, to be played in Sydney, Australlia. The first MLB games to be played there. The series of two games will feature the D-Backs and the Dodgers. Pepper's preseason lineup is better than anywhere else!
