Jesus, even Sori is hitting.

Yay Nady!

EPIC!

Yay Lee!

It is awesome to see them finally chase Davis' crappy ass early. Nicely done, Cobs.

Oh the good times. :thumbsup: curse you Ouch.

He is indeed the very worst.

I could see them not winning more than 75. It wouldn't be a shock to see the offense regress from last year when they weren't that good and it wouldn' be suprising to see the pitching not hold up when you have guys like Gorz and Silva in the rotation. Yeah but I don't know but I feel strangely positive after this first week. The starting pitching was the thing I was worried about most coming into this season, and they've looked good so far. Obviously going by track records, I shouldn't expect Gorz and Silva's starts to be the norm but every time they pitch well the more confidence I get. Besides, the thing I was most excited to see as Wells' performance the other day. The offense has to be better than this. Half the lineup is hitting under .200 and I cannot remember a single extra base hit that wasn't a home run this season, other than Soriano's check swing double (although I'm sure there have been, just can't remember them). They will probably be a slightly below league average offense this season, but that's still better than how they played this week. Plus, if they can just be solid enough to get to July, there is always the possibility of an upgrade. The bullpen worries me, but you gotta hope by the middle of May, we'll have sorted out roles a little better, and hopefully someone in there can be a reliable 8th inning guy. If not, we have some other arms in the minors that could be worth a try. I don't know, after seeing how close we could easily be 5-1, it's hard to be too pessimistic about the team after the first week. It's definitely distressing to see us 2-4, but there will be weeks where we'll get lucky and have a better week than we've played too. If we can get 2 against Milwaukee, we should be able to at least get 2 against horrible Houston, and we'll be back to .500 a week from today. Gotta say I'm with UMF here.

We really need to find some way to trick Fuku into thinking every month is April. In other news, the Turkish word for April is Nisan. I think that's silly. Carry on.

High comedy.

AMAZING

This is amazing.

There's no way Grabow escapes this one.

SIGH

Gorzo is sick.

False. They'll save that for the 8th at the earliest.

Hooray! It's a Christmas miracle!

they have the talent. but they have dusty baker. Their offensive talent is vastly overrated. I've been thinking the same thing while watching their lineup the last few days.

Well that's a futile walk.

Cramazing.

Christ Almighty

Come on, Cobs.
