*** OFFICIAL *** 2010 MLB Season thread!!

[TallBill]

Holy crap, baseball starts again right now! Yankees at Red Sox tonight.


Looking forward to an interesting year for the White Sox myself. Got tickets to the first 2 games. Pretty much any day that I'm not working I'll be at the park.

Hopefully it's not that kind of year for the Indians. What a play

 

[raystorm]

Mets with a nice win though the rotation after Johan is ...well.. not so good. lol I think the offense should be just fine especially when Reyes and Beltran come back but they don't have the pitching needed to compete for the playoffs. I think they'll finish 3rd with a 82-80 record behind the Phils and Braves.

Speaking of the Braves, Jason Hayward hits a 3 run bomb in his first MLB at bat. Kid is going to be a monster. ... and a met killer! :O

wtf?
terrible call. tie goes to the runner dammit!

 

[TheVrolok]

Phillies offense looked great today. Halladay had a nice outing. Having Placido back is already paying dividends. Of course .. it was the Nationals.

It wasn't a tie, he was clearly out by half a step on the replay

 

[speg]

Damnit, nothing gets me more than a blown save. You need to be able to seal the deal.

:hmm:

I hadn't seen the slow-mo replays after the initial vid. Probably should have looked...

 

[pyonir]

Honestly, did anyone outside of Texas and Anaheim know that Vladimir Guerrero now plays for the Rangers? LOL. Either I completely forgot about that, or hadn't seen it when it happened. I had no clue until I was watching the end of the game today.

GO TWINS!

 

[JohnCU]

[oogabooga]

Go Giants!

 

[rcpratt]

Yeah, without a doubt Konerko had the ball first. Here's a working link:

Was a great game to go to even if my seats sucked. Gonna see Peavy pitch for us on Wednesday!

 

[dbk]

Great start to the season, Cubbies!!! Woohoo!!

Lmao yeah

 

[anxi80]

and just a heads up but everyone knows that mlb extra innings is doing their free preview until the 11th right?

 

[SP33Demon]

M's vs Phils in the World Series, you heard it here first.

 

[fustercluck]

Couldn't they easily cut down to play like 100 games a year instead of 162? 162 games in a single season is redonkulous to me. Then again I don't really like baseball too much

Hope to go see the Diamond Backs play at Chase field someday though. How much are MLB tickets these days? Shouldn't be too expensive since I see so many empty seats.

 

[KeithTalent]

I should really make the 3 hour drive down to see a Mariners game before Ichiro retires. Unfortunately I do not know anyone that actually likes Baseball.

I'll agree with the second part.

 

[TheVrolok]

Decent start for my Phils.

 

[raystorm]

Last year the Natinals made their debut..

Now make way for the San Francicso Giants!

Nice.

Just started watching the Pit/LAD game from the Pit feed (FSP) and these commentators are TERRIBLE with color commentary. They just spent like 3 minutes mumbling about the iPad and cell phones. There was also quite a bit of dead air. Yikes.
