Yes this is clear, I think everyone sees him as such, it's just how much will be bat?

 

[ACamp1900]

Ohtani apparently was just killing the ball today in BP, a few 450 plus shots...

In other news...BoSox finally locked up the big bat they need in the lineup. Now if Bogaerts and JBJ can return to form at the plate and Pedroia can get/stay healthy this team might be alright. Price returning throwing the ball well would help too.

Random: The Mariners need to go to their alt unis full time:

I mean, they'll still be a sh1t team, with sh1t fans, in a sh1t ballpark, but at least they'll look better....

BTW, Just having baseball on TV, meaningful games or not, this past week has me like:

Miami just gave up a homerun on the first official pitch of the entire season... in a less than half filled Marlins Park.

Twins gonna party like its 1991 bitches.

World Series or bust!

Bullpen is going to be an issue for everyone's beloved BoSox. I'm pissed.

 

[ACamp1900]

I'd almost be good with the Angels starting like 0-10 if it means we can finally move on from Sciosica... this dude could fuck up a popsicle these days.

Haha, It feels like he's been there foreeeeeeeeeever.

I had a similar feeling with Girardi last year, I thought after the ALCS run there was no way they would part with him. I was very pleasantly surprised.

For being a former catcher MS sure does know how to fuck up a pitching staff....

Happy to see the Braves pull it out on opening day. Always feels special.

 

[Crazy Balki]

Great win by the good guys. Completely erased a 0-4 deficit.

Hope Anderson can build off a huge day. He certainly deserves a good year after the crap he went through last year. Him and Davidson bombed the Royals today.

Enjoy the highs in this rebuilding year.

Was fun to watch. Could be a very special season if they can hit 5+ homers a game lol.

Hell yeah. Huge comeback for game one.

 

[irish o'phile]

Today was perfect for the Yankees. 5-6 innings from the starter. Middle of the order mashed. Bullpen shut things down. Stanton was reeediculous.

Twins lose in extra innings in Baltimore. Season is over. Might as well just quit watching now.

 

[GowerND11]

M's with a good start over the Indians. Kluber pitched a hell of a game. Got a strong first start from what's left of King Felix. Boom Stick did a Boom Stick thing. Really liked how Marjama played behind the plate. Diaz was scary, shocker... 2 HBPs, 2 steals, but got the closeout.

 

[ACamp1900]

Dude just now in my Angel game, ball down the line, about to land just foul in the stands, Upton chasing, a Dodger fan (???) hits the ball in foul territory, it careens fair and Upton then collides with the fan jumping for the ball, the same fan hugs onto Upton preventing him from moving for a second or so and the ball is called fair and the hitter comes all the way around for an in the park home run... wtf? Two counts of fan interference just completely ignored.

 

[ACamp1900]

Ohtani hit a home run in his first at bat at home... then laced a single in his second. He's been a totally different player once the games started counting, doesn't mean it'll last or anything but yeah, so far, so good.

 

[ACamp1900]

He just laced another hit, then scored... great first night in front of the home crowd...
