I'll give you guys credit for actually watching full games. Most I can bring myself to do so far is leave my TV on and occasionally check out an at-bat or two.

yes because a team that; going into today, scored more runs than any other team in baseball, has arguably the most entertaining player in the league, has two of the best power hitters in the league -- who have combined to hit two of the longest home runs of the season so far -- one of them being MVP calibre, has a defensive wizard in the outfield, and will have the rookie of the month for april doesn't make them very fun to watch at all. it's undeniable.

Three of the best power hitters in the league, actually. Heck, if you want to add Travis, make it four :)

Offense has been exciting to watch so far, can't say the same about our pitching however. Hopefully the pitching will come around in May.

Apparently AA has called about Hamels.

Also, we need a new series thread. :)

Said he had 2 hard hit balls earlier in the game off Porcello so didn't see a need to pinch hit for him there. I can understand the logic in the moment, but I wouldn't leave Martin on the bench with runners on the corners in that game, especially when OB Dickey was done anyways most likely....
That's what she said.

Been looking forward to this one... will be interesting to see how Norris fares after his last solid outing.

Man... the separation on Norris' pitches is outstanding.
