This is how I feel. The good thing about baseball, is that it is simply one game in a very long season. The bad thing is that considering the pitching match ups, this should have been a very winnable game for the Cubs. Agreed. I had friends getting worked up over their teams losing yesterday. It's the first game of the season. There's still 161 to go. Chill out.
-
I agree. He hasn't been what we've expected, but he hasn't been a complete bust. He still put up a very respectable OBP last season and hit well in the first half. I think he improves again this year, especially if he's platooned a little more.

Is it sad I wasn't surprised by anything? I actually called Heyward's homer and a couple of the other miscues. Typical.
-
I don't see it happening. They won't eat that much salary and wouldn't get enough in return to make it worthwhile.

Would you as a Cubs fan wear this shirt?

Uhhh, no. -
Denard Span is a mother hitter!

That's fairly amusing. I laughed. Glad she's OK. -
Kevin Millar Released

Did the front office actually make a smart decision? I'm floored. -
Wood's 20Ks, definitely. I'm not downplaying the perfect game. That's a tall feat as well. I just think it's more impressive to miss bats against 20 batters in one game. That's all on the pitcher and the catcher.

From Rosenthal:

Why does the organization feel that Kevin Millar is worth a bench spot? Can't he just be a clubhouse mascot or something? Or Dempster's prank buddy? I really hate wasting a roster spot on him.
-
Meh. We're stuck with him regardless. I'd rather see Gorzelanny get a shot. But let's give the ball to Silva and see if he can try and not be useless for 2-3 starts. If he holds up or fails miserably, it's still a very short experiment with Lilly ahead of schedule on his rehab.

I can understand the Will Leitch hatred, but I don't think he's a bad writer and I think this was actually decent. He basically hit the nail on the head.
-
Lotta money but still a good deal. Good for them.
-
If Hendry could somehow get the Twins to eat some of Wood's contract he should be voted Executive of All-Time. :D #-o The next sentence was in my mind, so I f'd up.
-
I'd love to have him back, though only if the Twins ate some of his contract. There are rumors that the Twins are looking at Wood with Nathan now hurt.
-
Brian Roberts is hurt and the Orioles are looking for a temporary second baseman. Fontenot for someone like Cla Meredith and a prospect? Just spitballin possibilities here.
-
If they can trade Silva for him, sure. That would be sweet. They can't do that. That would be Jim Hendry owning up to two mistakes.
-
With Guzman now shut down and possibly out for awhile, is there anyone out there other than Frasor or Downs that would be appealing?
-
DLee is too high. Cap Anson is too low.
-
Muskat tweeted that Guzman has a torn ligament in his shoulder and will miss Opening Day. Whether he needs surgery is unknown. Just great.
-
Good deal for the Mets. Dumb the Cubs wouldn't pull the trigger on something like that.
-
-
That was one of the best games I've ever seen. So intense. Reminds me of why I love hockey so much.

Mulder to retire

It's amazing how little each of the big three has accomplished since leaving the A's, though Hudson has had some success.
