The Short Game

The Short Game is a documentary about golf.  It isn't about old guys playing golf, but it is about people my age playing golf in a big tournament in North Carolina.  If you have Netflix, you can watch it.  During the documentary, the camera men follow the most popular 7 and 8 year old golfers around and you get to know them on a personal level.

This documentary shows how hard it is to make it to the top levels of golf, but you can relate that hard work to other sports.  You do not have to even like golf to enjoy this movie, as it is more about getting to know the golfers.

My favorite golfer was Sky Sudberry, the smallest golfer on the course.  As I watched the movie, I was rooting for her the whole time.  To find out if she takes the crown, watch The Short Game.

Baseball's Best

Spring training is going on right now.  I think the best six teams going into regular season will be the San Francisco Giants, the Detroit Tigers, the L.A. Dodgers,  the Milwaukee Brewers, the St. Louis Cardinals, and the Boston Red Sox.

All of these teams are starting off well in Spring training.  I think some of these teams are going to do well throughout the entire season and into the play-offs.

I think the best catcher this year will be Yadier Molina because he last year had a good season and is starting off well this year too.  He has a strong arm, but I am hoping for an outstanding year with his bat too.

My top prospect for first base is Miguel Cabrera because last year he was an awesome hitter and did well at third base too.  Being back at first base will help him on the field.

The best middle infielders are Derek Jeter and Robinson Cano because they are quick on the field and strong at bat.

On the other corner, Adrian Beltre, will be the top third baseman because he has amazing batting skills.

In the outfield, Mike Trout takes the lead because he just rocks!  Andrew McCutchen and Carlos Beltran fill the rest of the outfield.  This would be a fierce outfield because Trout makes amazing catches, McCutchen has a great bat, and Beltran is fast in the field.

The number one pitcher is Max Scherzer because he has a strong arm and good control.
