  • It's Opening Day!

    So weird saying that on July 23.....

    no kidding, I was thinking the same thing this am.

    I do find my cynicism about this season is giving way to my kiddish enthusiasm ... and the Jays are tied for first, woo hoo!!!
    It certainly feels that way. But I'm distrustful of that feeling and am curious about evidence.

      I'm happy. I wish every team played on opening day. But I'll take it.

        It isn't opening day because the REDS are not playing today

          Kershaw already placed on the IL, so he’s obviously not starting tonight. Dustin May recalled and gets the nod tonight.

            this is a crazy opening day. I guess that is appropriate considering it has been a crazy year

                          He does have a good record of .370-.380 OBP the last two years. And while he doesn't have Betts or Bellinger's speed, he's not a slug on the basepaths, either.
                          I'm just here for the baseball.

                            props to MLB for having Angel Hernandez out there to beclown himself yet again as the home plate umpire on national TV.

                            he punched out a couple of guys, Leslie Nielsen style, where even Livan Hernandez (supposedly no relation) at home on his couch had to be saying, "C'mon, man!"

                            imagine masters of their craft like Scherzer and Cole working on the same stage as a fool like A-Hern. no doubt many movie sets were like that, where the pros have to contend with an absolute hack. but you make it work.
