2009 MLB Season Thread

Great pitching matchup for Detroit v. Blue Jays. Verlander v. Halladay.

It would be a great pitching matchup if Verlanders ERA wasnt 4.84 last year.

 

[cruzg24]

Damn all these people picking the mets on MLB Network making the NLCS are making me nervous, lol. Our season will come down to our #3 and #4 starters. Maine and Perez specifically.

 

[Rios15]

Jays game today can't wait, I'm sure Halladay will get the win for us, he's unhittable even though Verlander is pitching, I'm pretty sure Halladay will be able to hold him down.

Rangers up 4-0 on Indians. Lee had a bad 2nd but has settled down the last two innings.

 

[The Guid]

and BOOM goes the dynamite...Blalock cracks a pitch into the bleachers

7-0 Texas

 

[cruzg24]

Rangers really tatooed Lee today. That lineup is very potent and was 1st in the majors in BA and Runs I think. I expect the same this year especially with Davis and Saltalamachia.

 

[elcheato]

Rangers won't do anything this year.. Lee always gets bombed in Texas and so do the Indians in general, we always struggle there since it's a power hitters park.

 

[VC15]

Rocky start for CC. Allowing two straight to get on base.

 

[The Guid]

idk, they are flexin the muscles and the offense is looking good. I think if their pitching is average, they'll compete.

That's the problem, if there pitching is average, which is normally isn't lol. I believe Lee gave up like 7 or 8 runs last year in his start in Texas. Next game we have Fausto on the mound, and the Rangers wont be able to get his sinker in the air so I think we'll win that one.

 

[VC15]

Markakis should have struck out right there. But he popped out on the next pitch.

 

[cruzg24]

Mets win. And we continue to have the best opening day record in the majors. Thats how we roll, lol.

 

[elcheato]

I hope for CC's sake he doesn't have a rough April like he did last year... He might get crucified by a lot of Yankee fans for that one month.

 

[The Guid]

ash much as I want the Yanks to lose...CC needs to pitch well for my fantasy team's sake.

 

[VC15]

Nice catch by Jeter to get the Yankees out of a jam.

 

[VC15]

Jeter's 2 for 2 so far. And Damon gets a sac fly to score Brett Gardner.

 

[MapleLeaf]

SMH at giving us play-by-play to the Yankees. ESPN does enough of that all season long for every game for the Yankees

 

[VC15]

I'm just giving the notables. And we all know that ESPN spends all day riding the Red Sox jock straps.

 

[MapleLeaf]

SMH.

All they talked about was Yankees this offseason and how glorious and how glorious opening day of the New Yankee stadium will be.

Have you seen the New Yankee Stadium yet? It's amazing, and the Yankees did pick up the top three FA's on the market.

3-1 Orioles.
