I have probably watched less jai-alai this year than any in the last 20. I would have to say Medrano is very much improved, although some of it came in 2008 as well. He went from a must avoid to (very often) a must bet in the early games. At Miami, I'm very impressed with Aritz, who continues to win in the lates. Girard must be doing something right if he's currently leading in wins.
