Now, we\u2019re top of the pyramid again in terms of areas for players to train, areas for them to practice, tools for both coaches and players, modern technology that wasn\u2019t available 12 years ago. We\u2019ve also built in adaptability for things that might be coming down the road in the next five or 10 years. That was overdue, and it\u2019s going to be great.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_nrdh7uo1y\">\u201cI will tell you, I had breakfast with two players this morning and they told me, as excited as they are to get their rings, they\u2019re really excited to see the clubhouse because they\u2019ve heard so many great things about it.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jul. 10, 2009; Los Angeles, CA, USA; Aerial view of Dodger Stadium near downtown Los Angeles.
