A cold front has swept across the southeast, engulfing Grapefruit League spring training sites in sub-60 degree weather, much to the chagrin of of players, coaches, and reporters. Joe Frisaro, Juan Rodriguez, and Ricky Nolasco all took to Twitter to express their concern over the weather. But had Joe Frisaro not included a picture of the Marlins’ practice field in his tweet, it would have been unclear precisely where in the solar system he was:

According to Wiki answers, the temperature on the planet Jupiter ranges from as low as -108 degrees Celsius to as high as 70 degrees Celsius, depending on the atmospheric pressure.
Also on twitter this morning, I found a hilariously sad meme from MLB Memes. Enjoy!
