Yay, It's officially Opening Day!! St. Louis vs Miami tonight and everyone else starting tomorrow! I'm really hoping Atlanta doesn't blow it in September again this year! I'm looking forward to seeing how our pitching will do if they stay healthy and I'm hoping for a bounce back season by Heyward! Hoping for a great sophomore season out of Freddie Freeman and looking forward to seeing if Uggla can continue his great batting through Spring Training throughout the season! Let's GO BRAVES!
And a quick rant: I was considering purchasing MLB.TV since they offer it on Xbox LIVE now and found out that all of the Braves' games will be blocked out because they are the "local" team(I live in SC). Why would anyone pay $125 a year to watch every team except the team they root for!? :End rant.

I love baseball, last year's end of the regular season and the Cardinals' World Series comeback were so much fun to watch. I don't really root for any team though... except maybe the Braves by default since I grew up rooting for them, but Chipper Jones is the only Brave left that I even recognize (if he's still there, lol).
Oh... and Miami's new stadium is kinda hideous IMO. LOL.

Very excited about the new season.
But the new wild card rules are ridiculous. Unless the Giants find themselves in that spot. For any other team: ridiculous. |

LOL. Yah. It is weird for sure, but the only good thing is that before there was no difference from winning your division or winning the wild card, so a team could lose on purpose just to get a better match-up in the 1st round of the playoffs. At least now winning your division actually matters.

What this new system does is destroy any chance of the last day of the season being anything as close to as epic as last year's was. |

The Red Sox are f**ked already. We lost our closer (Andrew Bailey) until June.
Who knows, though. Hopefully someone will step up and things will work out. |

Ummm.....No.
Oh yeah, I didn't even mention him. .....and another pitcher of ours (Mr. Jenks), got arrested for an OUI hit-and-run! Who the hell knows what will come of that. A great start to the season! |
