Now he just needs to pitch 9 innings every game.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves. How else are the Gaints going to buoy their atrocious bullpen? If Bum pitches a full 9 he's going to be out a couple games after that.

Harper hits his 5th career opening day home run and Strasburg goes 7 innings with only 2 ER. Good start to the season.

Typical Dodgers/Padres game so far, wow the Padres are a strange bad team. They've got three rule 5 players and a guy who is a catcher/pitcher/outfielder. Lets see how he does, coming into the game right now.... wild pitches in a run and gets injured covering home on his first pitch of the year...

Who the fuck decided that the NCAA title game was on the same day as opening day...

Angels just committed the weirdest balk I've seen in a while. Pitcher just straight up dropped the ball at his feet before the wind up.

My fantasy draft was shit, I was PVPing and lost track of time, so I missed the first 6 rounds. My pick came right after someone took DeGrom from me, so I reluctantly took Masahiro Tanaka... who promptly got lit the fuck up.

Did manage to trade Bryce Harper (auto pick) for Yo. Should be approved at least. Auto draft gave me Altuve, Harper, Freeman and a bunch of other trailer trash.

Oh yeah, I also drafted F-Her, who is already hurt. FML.

I don't think the Felix issue is serious. They likely pulled him because last season he tried to play on his injury and just made it worse. He pitched a 1-2-3 inning after the injury happened.

Silver lining, he struck out Altuve twice last night. Before that Felix had only struck him out two times in his career... at least I think thats what I read.

Rough start for the MVP, 0-9 with 4 Ks

[Vetali]

uhhh

I think I will stick to garlic fries

good start to the season. Losing two series to division rivals.

Royals start off rough and drop 3 straight at MN. im going to chalk it up to opening day fervor and the twins playing out in front of their ski's. picked up the first 2 against the Astros and seems they might get back on track.

Grasshoppers sold out by 4th inning in home opener.

Cycle for Myers, plus I don't know if you guys ever watch the Entertainment and Sports Programming Network, but we raised the banner(s) tonight

[ItachiZaku]

I had Myers on my fantasy team last season. Decent enough hombre.

That had to be a monster 12-6 hook... or the catcher made it look funky as fuck

A catcher that can frame well is like gold. I was never a fan of personal catchers, but if it leads to half a run off the ERA and .2 off your WHIP... it's worth the few mil a season.

[Vetali]

The only reason why Zunino is still on the team is because of his catching ability. Other than that he's a typical Jack Z prospect power hitting strike out machine.

Dodgers brought in Grandal specifically because of his artistry in that field, his 27 HR were just gravy.

Nats need to fix their bullpen or we can kiss our division title hopes goodbye.

They must be doing better since they had to strike a guy out twice for it to count.
