MLB: Opening Day! Remove this text

Are you ready for some baseball?!

Yeah, the Yanks and Red Sox played last night, but Opening Day is during the hours when the sun is out. I'm having a great time watching the games.

Mets - Reds is interesting so far. Pedro gave up a 3 run HR in the 1st inning, but SINCE has struck out 10 out of 11 batters. WOW! Beltran has a HR and a 2B and is looking like he's worth the cash.

What a great day for baseball. 65 degrees and sunny here in Washington.

Washington now has a team! Opening at the Phillies. Down 3-1 in the 4th.

I hear they have a long road trip to start the season. I guess it is to get the stadium ready? Hell, they'll fell like they are playing for Montreal again .

The White Sox could contend in a weak division, but are more likely to finish third with Minny running away with it. The Sox have improved their pitching, but gone from a home run oriented team to a faster team. Only time will tell if these changes will be enough.

The Cubs season will depend on the health of their pitching... and so far, it's looking grim. Two of their top three starters are injured, and their poor excuse for a closer is out as well...

The lower deck at RFK is almost sold out to season ticket-holders. I doubt that kind of support was given by the Canucks.

Washington has grown at least 5x in the meantime, now broadcasts all of its games, and has the metro system readily accessible to fans, etc. I'm not worried.

20 hits for the Cubs so far... leading 15 - 5 and the Sox won. A good day for baseball in Chicago.

Hell of an opening day. Loved how Dunn welcomed Pedro to the NL, then topped it off by going yard on Looper.

Buerhle was awesome, Sheets looks like he'll repeat his performance from last year, Colorado beating San Diego was the most exciting game of the day, even if they did it against one of my fantasy closers. And of course the Cubs kicked ass, I don't think it's an abberation they've been doing that all spring training. Of course they've been up against so-so pitching.

Very satisifying day.

Mets bullpen was HORRIBLE. They wasted a great performance by Pedro (12 Strikeouts in 6 innings) after the 1st inning.
