From the department of frivolous information, Placido Polanco and Danys Baez flew separately from the team down to Atlanta today. Certainly not implying anything here, I believe Major Leaguers are given the option of getting themselves to away games. Just seems interesting that you would pass up a chartered flight for a commercial one on the day of a game.
Ryan Lawrence, Phillies beat writer for the Delco Times, tweeted about this as he was on the same flight.
@ryanlawrence21: Polanco and Baez were on my flight. Headed up terminal escalator I thought, "That guy looks a lot like Danys Baez." Uh, that's bc it was him
No word on whether or not Polanco's golf ball sized temples were selected for additional screening.
