Nomar homer!
up 4-0 so far. This Edgar Gonzalez doesn't look too good. If anything is going to stop the DBacks from being a contender, it's going to be the pitching staff, and subpar play from Randy Johnson when he gets back. We'll have to see if he can still be an ace of a staff, but it's hard to do there with the former NL Cy Young winner, Brandon Webb.

Penny started off the season the same way last year. I believe he was 10-2 or 11-3 around the all star game. He was also the starter for the NL and I'll never forget how he struck out the side to start the game.
The only thing that concerns me is that Penny has some fatigue issue, he usually gets tired and doesn't finish strong. He struggled to finish last season after the All Star. Schidmt is another example, I think he is a 6 inning pitcher in my opinion and I don't know if he finishes a season strong. I guess we will see.

Agree on Penny. The guy is a great 1st half pitcher but disappears in the 2nd half. IMO i think the issue with Penny is that he throws every pitch with 110%. He goes for the strikeout instead of the simple out. By the time it's the 4th, the guy is sweating like a pig (Gagne like sweat) already.
