With QIC Hushpuppy trying hard to avoid the DL, your YHC and newly minted Q school graduate brought a little 5 tool Baseball Workout fun to kick off the week. 27 PAX reported to Spring Training at the Grinder to join in with their favorite MLB skill position players on their first day of workouts.

Welcome FNG Peter Sumner (Ivanka).  Great job this morning.  SYITG soon!

Great job by all on a balmy February morning.  I believe I heard more

than one #itshumidouthere comments. Good to get a good sweat on to

start the week.  I for one was glad to keep the feeling in my hands

and feet for an entire workout for the first time in a while.

Despite the fact everyone’s favorites (Everest & Burpees) were

conspicuously missing from the Grinder this week, hopefully this Co-Q

still brought enough to start the week right.  YHC acknowledges

missing the fact there may have been a need to demonstrate a few

exercises.  From what I hear though, the PAX improvised nicely.
