Anyone notice who's leading the NL in ERA this morning ?

 

Maybe those guys don't suck as badly as some make 'em out to.

Anybody notice how few people were in PNC Park last night?

I've been tempted to pick up Duke or Maholm in one of my fantasy leagues, but I don't trust their hot start just yet

This clearly includes the home town fans.

 

Oh, note, too that the game was held up by rain. And, even though they were off last night, I'm sure the Pens series had an effect, too.

Yeah, the weather sucked and they were facing Florida. But it was still pretty amazing how empty it was when they panned over the entire stadium, and seriously, maybe they shouldn't have shown that angle at all. Entire sections were empty down on the field level, all the way to the front row.

Pitching at Petco this weekend should help those numbers.

[Jake]

They're going to have to be very good to draw at the beginning of the season.

 

The Pens had a nice run to end the season. The Steelers... Pitt Basketball did very well.

 

After all that, It's going to take a LOT to get people to come see a team that many have predicted break the record for consecutive losing seasons.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Fourth in HR allowed, t-8th in Walks, 16th in strikeouts.

 

I think maybe the word "mirage" is order here.

 

(and allow me to be among the many who predict the losing seasons streak continues)

Why do people fall in love with April stats? Colour me impressed if you still doing great or colour me worried if your doing poorly through the end of May. 15 or so games does not a season make.

[Jake]

Because the doom and gloom predictions of the team are such that, even if we're leading in stats of anything after one game, it would be significantly better that the prognostications of our team!

 

That a team with our prognostications leads over any two week period, be it the first two weeks, the last two, or any two weeks in between is worth noting.

Maholm had a strong second half last year too.

Think if Gorzelanny hadn't forgotten how to pitch.

Just enjoy the moment of glory, Jake, and don't worry about the reaction on this forum. :wink:
