SOL this year? Don't you mean SOL for a century-plus, and counting?

Of course. Were you, I'd never bust on them. I don't believe in busting anybody's chops on Opening Day. Bad karma, and the Baseball Gods take notes.

I simply thought that public urination story was too good to ignore.

Red Sox flex their muscles with 5 homers and shut out the Phillies 8-0.
Nice start

White Sox got lambasted today....Jeff Z. wasn't horrible as a starter, but the bullpen was rough.

I read that only 2 teams had a worse bullpen ERA last year than the Tigers didf, and one of them was the White Sox. I did not know that.

Sox' one run was an Abreu home run. I'm betting we see about 50 more of those this season.

Our bullpen was hot garbage last year. Hopefully they turn it around.

I saw Seepaydus had a great jump and took away a homerun for the Tiggers today and on the flip side the Sox signed the player they traded him for. Rick Porcello for over 20 million a year?? I think he was 15-13 last year or something not very 20 million a year like... glad it's not my money

I also enjoy that yesterday he said that he wouldn't discuss his contract during the season, today he signed, I guess he saw 82 million dollars in black and white and he had a change of heart. lol

I think Jeff will be OK, Nate. The bullpen, not so sure.

I saw that too, Adam, baseball kills me.

They're guaranteed to finish no worse than 1-161 now.

J/K, Brother, I am sure they will win at least 60.

So what about that Astros DH, Evan Gattis? He dons the golden sombrero Wednesday, then wears it again yesterday. Back-to-back, 0 for 8 with 8 Ks.

Records are a little fuzzy, but it is thought no one has started the season this way since at least 1914.

I didn't realize Adam Dunn was that old.

Mookie "named after Blaylock not Wilson" Betts has a huge opening day at Fenway, leaps and grabs a ball from over the bullpen wall and brings it back in, steals two bases on the same play and hit a three run bomb into the Monster seats.
