Very interesting that Lannen was sent down to the minors considering people thought there would be teams that wanted to trade for him.

You mean STL knocking MIA out of their reverie?

Let's separate fact from fiction, actuality from rumour.

Vox Populi:

Joey Votto signs an extension that goes through Justin Trudeau's second term as PM (I will have moved far, far away by then) and then starts the parade of 'Reds to win NL Central' predictions.

Not long ago, Braun won his appeal and we saw a similar chant of 'Brewers to hold on to NL Central' nonsense.

Vox Dei:

Adam Wainwright is back, and the Cardinals will take the NL Central.

It sucks this game is not on tv in Canada.

Good start for STL

Man, one of the guys doing the game has an annoying voice, he makes my ears bleed.
Edit; It's Terry Francona

I think his nerves got to him in the 1st inning

For those who are interested Bos vs DET are playing on SN1. Fantastic pitching matchup Lester vs Verlander

4-0 Rays already over the Yankees. Pena gets a standing ovation and rewards the fans with a GS.

Tyrone Slothrop · Post #15 » by **Tyrone Slothrop** » Fri Apr 6, 2012 7:41 pm

Well at least Romero isn't the only opening day starter to not throw a gem. CC gave up a grand slam in the first against Tampa.

James Shields is struggling as well. Hopefully this continues the whole year and last year was just a one time thing.

Wo1verine · Post #17 » by **Wo1verine** » Fri Apr 6, 2012 10:32 pm

Rays had men on 1st and 3rd with nobody out and Robertson comes back and K's the next 3 batters!

Rivera just blew the save! Time for him to retire :lol:

Soon as he blows too many saves he will retire. He won't try to prolong his career and ruin his numbers.
