Great to see Jaime Garcia with a great outing to start the season, had a pretty rough spring.

Garcia - 9 IP, 4 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 2 BB, 9 K

Cards win 2-0 to avoid the sweep, now for a 10 game west coast road trip

Pittsburgh comes in before that, so hopefully we can get some more wins before we head out to San Fran.

Oh wow total brainfart there you're right, yeah hopefully we can at least take 2 of 3 there but they actually have some good young talent so won't be an easy series.

They are giving the Cubs a good fight in this opening series, for what that's worth. Probably should be 2-0 if not for Overbay's error that opened the floodgates yesterday, and trading blows black and forth today.

Definitely. Their top four of the lineup will be good for a long time.

Also Dennis Reyes makes Joba the Hutt look like Arroyo.

Señor Sweat!

I hear ya, I started running leagues when stats still had to be taken out of the Monday paper. Pretty sure I was the only middle-schooler that had any idea how a spreadsheet worked. Out-nerd that.

I see I've finally met my match. I can't touch that.

I cannot believe Dennys Reyes has played for 11 different teams in the past 13 seasons.

I bet I know how he got that first name too.

That's "The Big Sweat" to you.

Man, has Papelbon fallen from grace or what?

Dear Rays,

Trade for Michael Young and play him at 1st base and bat him in the 5-hole now, please.

Sincerely,

Double Nickels

Good to see the Bravos reminding the Nationals that they're still the Nationals. 11-2 win to close out the series win.

Getting swept by the Orioles at home is like a grown man getting beat up by an 8 year old.

Im shocked. I know its early but it seems like Tampa has no pop in thier lineup. Im shocked at how well the starters pitched this weekend.

It's like the Rays are reverting back to being the Devil Rays or something. Their offense was so inept during that series it was unreal. In all fairness though, the O's starting pitching was very good and it will be interesting to see how it hold up over the course of the year.

The Rangers this past inning:

Papelbon should just intentionally walk the bases loaded every time he comes into a game. :wink:
