Brewers/Scrubbies game looks likely to be a rainout.

It is warm enough to be raining? Must be nice.

If you use Comcast for cable, I believe you get all the games today on their baseball package...

 

[Leroy Hoard]

Lots of outdoor cold weather games. You'd think they could start more games in warm weather/dome cities & reverse it in July & August.

It's pouring in Madison right now.

I'm hearing it might be an hour or 2 delay. That wouldn't be too bad. I might even get to catch some of the game on TV after work if it starts later.

It's coming down pretty hard right now. The Cubs upgraded Wrigley's drainage system in the off season......lets hope it does the job.

My baseball distance judgement needs some work. I thought Cabrera had that one.

Me too. I think I just wanted his Tiger career to start off with a 3-run HR so bad that I discarded my depth perception.

What channels would they be on?

[shadyridr]

Glad I drafted Verlander. Hes a stud

doh Gordon

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Gordan ripped that belt high offering. Too bad because Verlander hadn't mad a mistake all day.

 

[culdeus]

polanco = brutal today

need a few insurance runs for a todd jones save

 

[shadyridr]

ugh bye bye win

Weeks off to an early start in the NL strikeout race.

 

[culdeus]

jesus 4 walks for sheff today.

 

[mr. furley]

Weeks off to an early start in the NL strikeout race.

the Brewers always seem to have a guy or two (or three ) in the top 10.

 

[culdeus]

ugh, Jones yanked. 1.0 of 0.00 and 1k ball not horrible, but a W/SV would have been nice.

 

[shadyridr]

jesus 4 walks for sheff today.

You couldve had him

 

[wadegarrett]

FYI...Indians radio reporting Victor Martinez is day-to-day w/ "tightness" in the hamstring

oof

 

[shadyridr]

Zito is SFs opening day starter?

 

[428143]

The WSox radio announcer said torn hammy for V-Mart? Anyone catch that?

 

[Kevin Ashcraft]

How nice was that for KC!! Congrats to Trey Hillman on MLB Managing Victory numero uno.

Great stop by Gordon on the final out!

 

[shadyridr]

I cant believe how low Kent has been going in drafts

Gordon and his wife are a ####.

 

[Ghost Rider]

Rough first inning for Jeff Francis, as he couldn't find the strike zone for forever, and the Cardinals eventually get 4 runs off of him.

 

[culdeus]

Zito is SFs opening day starter?

I picked him up. Just in case. Not in the lineup though. Stranger things have happened.

Zito is SFs opening day starter?

The power of positive suggestion: pay him like an ace, use him as an ace and he'll get you 3 out of 6 guys out in the bottom of the 1st.

 

[Ghost Rider]

HR number 1 by Albert Pujols.

On pace for 324

 

[Spartans Rule]

It's even funnier that he's getting the nod over the 2008 NL Cy Young Winner, Tiny Tim.

 

[mr. furley]

Zambrano off with "forearm cramps"

are Brewers fans gonna have to sit through 6 good innings from the starter and then watch Torres, Mota, Turnbow, etc come in and just melt down on the mound starting around July?
