MLB Thread

[Tuggy]

I figure we need some thread for MLB action so....

Well the season is in full swing now with a bunch of afternoon games. Pedro is making his Met debut and has just let up a 3 run homer to Adam Dunn

The A's open up in Baltimore with Zito getting the start. He didn't perform very well in afternoon games last year so this could be a rough start against that lineup

tigers are tearing apart the Royals. Dmitri Young has 2 Hrs, and Jeremy Bonderman i think has 7 Strike-outs thru 5 innings.

8-1 Tigers.

Can't beat that for an opening start. Man the Royals are going to be bad this year

Lima got shelled and people criticised the Dodgers for letting him walk.

Dimitri Young is 4-4, 3 HR’s, 5 RBI’s and 4R

He's on pace for about 486...look out Barry!

[GoM]

I miss the season opener of the Jays, thanks to working

[IkeaMonkey*]

New City...same ole Expos...7-1 Phils so far.

[RoyIsALegend*]

Man, I'm falling asleep watching this Jays game.

Boooooooo-oooooooooring.

[John Flyers Fan]

Adam Dunn with a 2-run bomb in the 9th off Looper to tie the game.

If Dunn stays healthy he's winning the major league HR race.


EDIT: While typing Joe Randa followed Dunn's blast with one of his own to win the game.

[RoyIsALegend*]

Why bring in Looper there?

Look at how those three were life-time against him before this inning:

Kearns - 3-7 2 hr against loop
Dunn - 5-5 2 hr's
Randa - 4-9 1hr

Yet, we still bring him in... and now we lose.

On espn they reported Dunn was 1-5 with 1 HR and 3 K's against Looper, before this bomb.

I have no idea, I just took that stat off the ESPN Mets message board.

Anyhow, I know he's the closer and all, but this guy can't throw for crap and it's evident we need Urbina.

[RoyIsALegend*]

Two run home-run by Orlando Hudson in the 4th inning to put the Jays up 2-1 on the Devil Rays.

[RoyIsALegend*]

Vernon Wells hits an absolute BOMB back-to-back after Hudson's home-run.

3-1 Jays.

[Brodeur]

Whew, glad I benched Looper to start the season

C'mon Jays, I need the run support for Halladay!

[X8oD]

Dmitri Young Takes the Early HR lead adding a 3rd Homerun in the 8th Inning.

Final score 11-2.

[Vyse]

3-2 Jays, after 6 innings

Roy Halladay so far 6 IP, 7 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 0 BB, 6 K's

[SENSfreak_03]

the cubs are giving it to the dbacks..7-0 in the 2nd inning.

[Brodeur]

Good pitchers' duel developing at Coors Field......

[IkeaMonkey*]

Boy, Vazquez pitched a gem. Sure makes my MLB Mock draft rotation look good.

[Vyse]

5-2 jays
Eric Hinske 2 run HR, striaght to CF
top of the 9th with 2 outs

[Vyse]

Jays win 5-2
Halladay with the win, Batista with the save
HRs from Hudson, Wells, and Hinske

[SENSfreak_03]

14-3 cubs in the middle of the 7th. dbacks look like they havent lost a step from last year. nor have they gained one.
