Good grief... not again... at least we don't have MW saying "World Series or bust"
Sorry, I have no idea how to interpret this... 44/44 playoffs? What does that mean?
Woo. Baseball!
Let the jinx commence!
But seriously, happy opening day! As they say, today we're all undefeated. All we can do now is pray for health and enjoy the ride.
Eric - ESPN put out 44 "expert"'s picks for the 2014 season. All 44 had the Nats in the playoffs. Etc. etc.
First games gonna start before Harp gets his predictions in...I call shenanigans!!!
Sike - 94-68
Harper is the MVP discussion but doesn't win. Strong years from Stras and Ramos, bounced by Cards in NCLS (as much as I hate to say it)
Gotcha, thanks Harper.
Saw the line-up card for today. Not sure I really like it, but my guess is Williams will be experimenting for a bit to see what works. I do like Ramos in clean-up spot, though.
Span
Zimmerman
Werth
Ramos
Harper
Desmond
LaRoche
Rendon
Strasburg.
What to do with Zimm coming back.. for an optimal lineup I think moving Zimm to 3rd and Rendon to 2nd is preferable over sitting Harper, Span or Werth. That said there's a defensive sacrifice.
One thing I'm admittedly ignorant of.. the risk of Zimm injury in a demanding throw position like 3rd.
Also can't see it being wise to sit LaRoche unless you have a good lefty like Kershaw on the mound.
