Having A-Rod, Martin, Posada, Bautista, and Kemp on the same team = a glorious day. 7 homeruns!

Brett Wallace hitting .324 after tonight's game. Only 1 HR but it's nice to see him hitting at the MLB level.

His minor league stats kind of tell us he's gonna be a 20-25 HR guy but he has extra base attributes having 63 doubles in the minors. His total line is pretty consistent (.304/.375/.487) and I think that will translate to the majors. I think with him if he is hitting for average he's comfortable and the power will come. Not real bullish on him being a big HR hitter these first couple of years but I think he can really be a good run producer and thus a viable option at CI.

Cool story locally with the Jacksonville Suns (Marlins AA). Chris Hatcher was a good-field no-hit catcher with them last year. This year, he's a relief pitcher for them. Early returns are pretty good (very small sample size). 7.2 IP in 6 games, 0 ER, 8K, 1 BB, 3 H.

So he went from catcher to pitcher?

Ubaldo gives up the first hit for either team in the bottom of the fifth. Unfortunately for him he had walked the bases full before the 3-run triple.

Choo just threw two players out at home in the same inning. Both runners blew through stop signs.

James Shields shut down the Jays in a CG victory. It's early, but it looks like he's going to reward those who bought low on him after his terrible 2010 season.

Dice-K is such a strange pitcher. Guy can go from looking like an ace to a below average starter in an instant. So inconsistent.

I did, and was criticized for doing so. Go Shields!

ESPN: Please stop with the live K-zone. It's distracting and obnoxious. I want to see the movement of the baseball and the hitter's approach at the plate. Not your opinion of what the strike zone should be.
Brian Wilson: Enough with the beard schtick. I realize it's made you famous, but after giving up 6 runs in your last two outings you might want to try something else in the offseason instead of doing commercials.

x1000 It's a close race between who I'm more tired of seeing, Wilson or that Jane Lynch chick, the dyke form that glee tv show. That's enough now, we get it, you're weird and quirky, and try too hard to be funny, your 15 minutes is now up.'Grahamburn said:

Put Hughes or Jobber in the NL west in pressure free environs and I'm sure you see more than IPK has showed.'shadyridr said:

Gavin Floyd is dominating the Yankees. 8 innings, 3 hits, 1 walk, 10 strikeouts. 2 of the hits were homeruns but that's still impressive. He get into Arod's stash?

He's shown flashes of this numerous times. The only thing that's odd about this is that it's happening in April

I'm not surprised to see him flash talent...but I'm surprised to see him flash so much of it against a team that can hit as well as NY. But I'm always happy to see the Yankees lose so go Floyd!

So far this year it seems that team defense is really good.
I'm not just talking about the White Sox outfielder Lillibridge from yesterday or Choo nailing the two runners at the plate on Sunday, or the Web-Gems,but in general it looks like most teams are playing very sharp, and consistent defense all around the diamond.
