    In the best of times, our days are numbered, anyway. And it would be a crime against Nature for any generation to take the world crisis so solemnly that it put off enjoying those things for which we were presumably designed in the first place, and which the gravest statesmen and the hoarsest politicians hope to make available to all men in the end: I mean the opportunity to do good work, to fall in love, to enjoy friends, to sit under trees, to read, to hit a ball and bounce the baby.

    • Got to love opening day here in Detroit. Tigers down 10-6 bottom of the 9th. Rivero on the mound. Easy-peasy! Not quite my friends - 6 batter later he leaves the mound 10-8 with 3 BB and double. In come legend Joe Smoker (great pitching name). Gives up a bases clearing double to Machado and game is tied. I love it!!!

          Wilson was tired. His pitch count was over 50 when Polanco hit the 3 run HR bomb. Tigers got robbed when Castellanos was called safe for the winning run and the after doing the review which took a long time he was called out.

              • I was reading that Jansen velocity dip to the 88-89 mph range. This is from Dodgers beat writer Bill Plunkett:

                #Dodgers Kenley Jansen's two pitches to Joe Panik registered 88 and 89 mph. Asked about that and whether his mechanics were not in sync, Jansen said "Who cares?"
                He repeated it four times.

                  • It has been a pretty bad start for a whole lot of closers. Even though Chapman got the save last night, Tranna launched two no-doubt doubles around the three Ks.

                      Most volatile position in fantasy baseball. In the NL we had 3 reliable closers blowing saves and 2 closers losing games. Hand, Rivero, Knebel, Neris and Jansen in first 2 games.

                                I told you after the draft that I liked your Middleton closer flyer quite a bit. Congrats on the smart snag. Hope he bombs terribly for you. :P
