I thought this might be a good topic for a thread.
Of all the things that happened over the weekend what was the one thing that you expected or is inline with what you expected, and also what went the other way?
For me I realize it's just one game but the 2 pitchers that I expect the biggest potential regressions from this year were Clay Buchholtz and Jaimie Garcia.
I thought Buchholtz ERA from last year was lucky and made him look better than he actually was. Inn fact he only allowed 9 homers last year which was very good but allowed 4 in his first start of 2011, so I feel good about my leeriness of him in 2011.
As for Garcia, with his extremely large inning spike last year, and just general sophomore slumping tendency, I expected Garcia to struggle in 2011, but he comes out with a complete with a shutout n which he looked as dominant as I've ever seen him.
What about you fellow Penners?
