Going down to Cincy to see the reborn Cubs clobber the Rednecks.

Reborn? Prior in the minors Wood on the DL. Sounds like the same ol cubbies to me. Lou's gonna be teets up on Waverly before the seaon's over.

The Diamondbacks will finish 4th in the NL West this year. Padres third, the Giants and Dodgers will fight it out for first.

On a different note I'm fucking sick and tired of you idiot baseball fans from the Midwest. Its too cold there to play baseball and your all fat and disgusting. You can only play baseball during the summer, thats why most big leaguers come from So Cal, AZ, and So. FL. In short, shut the fuck up. The Brewers suck, the Cubs suck, the Reds suck, most of all Midwestern fans suck. Almost no baseball talent comes from the Midwest so shut your fucking mouths. You guys live in the ass crack of the nation, and you show by how you root for your baseball teams.

What happened to you? Did a girl from the Midwest laugh at your baby carrot dick or something?

That's some serious anger right there.

I hate opening day...every Giants fan in the world is trying to board the MUNI at the embarcadero, and they're all just standing around dumbfounded and aren't moving, and making it very hard to even move around. Stay home and watch it on TV!

[vogina]

going to go see angles vs. oak this thursday. anyone else going? i hate baseball, but love getting drunk at games

[kimery08]

im going to the friday game against the a's. my friends are taking me for my birthday!

[ghettojournalist]

lucky. it will have to be awhile before i go to an angels game.
angels look good.
i've been down since '94, so it's great to see that they are getting some respect now.

[AEversW]

angels suck.

[mountmccabe]

Oh man Byrnes was so close!

[mountmccabe]

And it's over. Fucking hell.

[mountmccabe]

To recap: Diamondbacks tied it at 2 in the 5th. Flash tot he 11th where they got a run in the top and then promptly Valverde let the first two on in the bottom. Hawpe hit into a doubleplay.

Tulowiski doubled to right off of Byrnes' glove. Eric dove for it but just missed.

Moments later Chris Iannetta hit the ball and Callaspo didn't get it and Tulowiski scored.

[La Ferrassie]

The D-backs need some serious additions in the pen.

[John Peel is My Co-pilot]

And the Crew wrap up the first series of the new season!
AEversW, maybe your avatar will be the nearest we get to seeing Takashi's smiling face this week.

I'm mighty glad though that I have Russell Martin in some of the fantasy teams I've got this year. Dude can rake!!

haha man i thought we really had it...Wolf just stayed in an inning too long. Billingsley and Broxton looked great. Broxton is a beast.

[mountmccabe]

Also: with the talk early in this thread of the Dodgers playing the Brewers I must admit that my thought was "wow, it's early for inter-league games."

Which is crazy because those two "new" things started in the same year.

Yup, you'd think that we'd never seen a fastball with some of those ABs. T-Bow's slider and curve were dropping in nicely. That was his problem last year - everyone just waited for the heat down the middle and sent it back over his head.

Gonzo's D will seriously cost you games at this rate though.

And Nomaaaaaaah's OCD gets really old really quickly!

yeah Gonzo will cost us some games...i have no idea why they took Ethier out of the lineup. Ethier hit .335 against lefties last year. Kemp should be starting in left with Ethier in right every game.

Turnbows curve to anderson was suck. he's got some filthy stuff

[HEADSTRUCK]

The only thing that worries me about Kemp is the strikeout streak he went on last season. I just hope he's ready for the majors.

[BoardsofCoachella]

angels suck.

Angels = 2-0
Dodger Dogs = 0-2

[Good Days Last]

Dodgers suck. Padres won.

Story of this season. Watch and see.

PS: HAHA@ Giants for overpaying Zito.

[C DUB YA]

Reborn as in - let's forget about Prior and Wood for good now, time to move on.

Wow, you're getting overly excited after the second game of the season. That's alright, it's probably the only time the Padres will be in first place, so enjoy it while it lasts.

[Good Days Last]

Nope. The Dodgers are trash. By the All Star break the Pads will still be in first. Mark these words. I'll bring this thread back up by the all star break just to prove my point.

go ahead...hahaha. Seriously this is the last year the Padres can be good. Maddux and Wells will be done next year and you're awful awful awful farm system won't help. the madres will need to spend soo much money just to be competitive.

[vinylmartyr]

Jose Cruz Jr is all I got to say.

[John Peel is My Co-pilot]

Simple fact is, there won't be a team West of the Mississippi that'll be close to the WS this year...

[vinylmartyr]

Its to early in the season to be making those kinds of statements. People get injured anything can happen. There lots of good teams right now. The Pirates are 2 and 0. Do you think they are gonna make the playoffs? The A's are 0 and 2 but they are a good team.

[AEversW]

not to mention the padres leadoff hitter is mike cameron. He struck out 142 times in 141 games last year. and ass jeff said...Jose Cruz Jr.
