Now that’s a good idea

Can’t imagine why this was important.

Torre said he was pleased with what he saw of the club’s first full workout. Particular attention was paid to baserunning fundamentals, with third-base coach Larry Bowa providing a station-to-station lecture.

Oh wait, yes I can. ;)

And let’s hope the Beimel Hair situation isn’t a Sampson kind of deal:

“[Torre] said he wanted me to cut my hair and I said, ‘OK,’” said Beimel. “It was looking bad anyway. It hadn’t been cut since August.”

Beimel said he consulted the wife of teammate and former Vero Beach resident Chad Billingsley for a recommendation of a stylist and was pleased with the results.

Beimel said he’s gone with long hair since 2004 Spring Training, when he reported to Pittsburgh Pirates camp with a shaved head, had a poor spring and was released.
