Pitchers and catchers countdown?

[brettac1]

Since there's a countdown for opening day and the home opener on the bottom of forum pages, how about adding one for the date pitchers and catchers report to spring training?

Do you have the date?

The first day pitchers and catchers can report according to MLB is February 14th. I would guess that'd be close enough for a countdown until the Brewers officially announce it.

I knew the contractual date was available. We can go with that and replace it with the Brewers' date when we know it. If someone hears the date, feel free to bump this thread.

i think the date is feb 16.

 

the date is listed on season ticket renewal folders. i threw mine out yesterday, saw the date was on there, but didnt have time to post this. i cant remember for sure.

 

there is also a countdown on the video board outside miller park for anyone that may see it when they drive by.

Last night at about 11:30 the board outside Miller Park was at 46 days 9 hours until PACR

So February 16th?

I'll do it based on the 16th unless we're corrected. Maybe someone with season ticket renewal folder in hand can confirm. I always goof up counting days like this. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/frown.gif

 

By the way, the script doesn't give us the capability to count down to a part of a day other than midnight; I already looked into that when I first did the Opening Day stuff.

I have a season ticket renewal folder right here and the listed date for pitchers and catchers is in fact February 16.

Cool. Then we're set. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
