Man, that Jays/Cards game was a load of fun. Toronto won 10-9, in a game that had a total of 34 hits.

Toronto's 19 hits set a new franchise record for opening day, breaking the record set in their very first opening day, back in 1977.

Giants offense looks really bad today, I don't know if it was Gerrit Cole being good so much as the Giants offense being that bad. Michael Conforto and Wilmer Flores batting 2nd and 3rd, gave me strange 2017-2018 NY Mets vibes. Year removed of baseball Conforto no less.

Hey I'll take it though. Speaking of 2017-2018, Josh Donaldson batting 5th is pretty scary shit...no less in 2023. 

Hey at least Corey Kluber wasn’t your opening day starter. Lol.

This whole day of baseball has been extreme on both ends. Pitching strike outs and high scoring games. Wild stuff.

He was the Yanks 3rd starter in 2021 though -_-.

Good thing the seasons got 950 games because I keep forgetting how many big names changed teams this off season. It’s going to take me some time to get used to these rosters.

There's not even an argument there, he wasn't ready to bat and then called the ump a douchebag.

It's been a terrible couple of days for the Mets getting shutout by the Brewers in consecutive games. The bats are silent and there are already concerns over Scherzer and Carrasco's aging/durability.

Meanwhile, I should have put some money on my Sandy Alcantara Cy Young prediction, he threw a CGSO today against the Twins - game time 1 hour 57 minutes.

The pitch clock timer during broadcasts need to go. I do not need to know the timer for every single pitch. Thankfully, YES does not do that, for now.

Hicks is so bad that IKF is the back up center fielder.

Not sure why Boone is resting guys five games into the season. Day off after their home opener and the next day off is this Friday. If you can't start from Saturday to Thursday (not including the catcher) ... are these adults? Is this a professional sport?

Break up the Rays, best start of any team in 20 years.

Gutted payroll but they still find a way to make it work, just masterful. I don't like them but you have to respect how they retool and trade guys before they command big deals. 

Yanks rooks are doing the work, Volpe is beginning to find his way a little and Jhonny Brito should not be sent down to AAA ever the way he is pitching while Clark Schmidt & Domingo German are stinking up the joint. Even when Severino and Rodon return, Brito is keeping the 5th spot until proven otherwise. 

A +57 run differential in just 10 games is wild.

Mets finally beat Yu Darvish thanks to some hilarious small ball

Was able to catch the Astros vs White Sox at Minute Maid park on opening weekend, what a great stadium and great vibe that was. Loaded up on a bunch of merch since they don't sell it here in this part of Texas back home, really sweet seeing all of the World Series Champion stuff having the best team in the world right there in the back yard. And good lord the ladies there in the stadium, sweet mother of jesus it's shorts shorts season in h-town, they sure don't grow'em like that here in East Texas haha.

Hopefully tomorrow, Toronto will roll over and we will see a new record.

How early is too early to start talking about 162-0?

Well the Blue Jays are sending Jose Berrios out there who's given up 12 earned runs in his first two starts.

I spoke too soon. I really need that 13 to 8 second countdown on every pitch. So important to know a pitch was thrown with 8 seconds left.

The Rays streak ends TONIGHT at the hands of the mighty Jays!

From Philadelphia, to Kansas City, to Oakland, to Las Vegas.

I don't know if I've ever seen a MLB team move more than the A's.

It sucks to see the A's leaving Oakland, since the fans in the city actually show and support the team when they are winning (Tampa doesn't do that for the Rays, ever).

I guess that's just the nomadic A's, after they left Philly. In a way, it's kind of shocking they were the team to leave Philly, since they actually were successful and won there, while the team named after the city struggled constantly.

Yanks are about to be 21-17 yet will be last in the AL East while Minnesota is 19-17 and lead the AL Central. I don't get it.

Cause the AL East and AL Central and different divisions, are orioles best team in baseball they take 2 out of 3 from the alimighty Rays 

The Mets offence has stunk this season but I have absolutely no idea what they are doing with David Peterson. They are 1-7 in his starts and 19-15 with all other SP. He's got the highest ERA in the league, what are we doing here?

b2b shutout games for Bassit. Dude is unreal.

Imagine telling someone that the Yankees would light up Manoa and Gausman but Bassit would shut them down. I would have pushed you into Lake Ontario.

Gary Sanchez is back in NY. Mets season turning around starting today.
