It's a new year, we've got a new stadium opening, and the Sox/Yanks still manage to turn a 9-inning game into a 5 hour snorefest. But everyone else that ESPN usually shuns is playing today (mostly everyone), so huzzah! |

I had forgotten there were two games, last night. I spent my evening walking 23 batters in "MLB 2010: The Show" on PS3. So I guess I won't be collecting that million dollar no-hitter bounty anytime soon. Besides, I'm still bitter that I was screwed by Activision back in 1982. I got a million points (or whatever) in "Pitfall"; took a picture of the screen; mailed it in; and those bastards NEVER sent me my t-shirt/poster/prize! Oh, and it looks like Yahoo's MLB server has been bombarded and shut down, already. |

The Dodgers and Pirates currently have The Most Confusing Rosters in MLB. The Bucs have Andrew McCutchen and Daniel McCutchen (I think one of them used to have an "O" in the end of their name). While the Dodgers have Ramon Ortiz and Russ Ortiz. |

Maybe it's me, but series' like Dodgers/Pirates, Phillies/Nationals, WhiteSox/Indians... hell, almost every series besides Cubs/Braves and Yanks/Sawx seems to comprise of a playoff contender and a botom feeder. I know it's not "fair", but opening the year with a bunch of series' of equally matched teams seems more entertaining to me. Marlins/Mets put me to sleep after the 5th when the Marlins forgot how to play defense, Phillies whomped the Nats, and the White Sox were clobbering the Indians early. The Cardinals/Reds game was hardly interesting, either. |

That's not nice to call the Dodgers "bottom feeders"! Rockies/Brewers is about even in terms of where each team is at. |

And they can't get ESPN coverage over, say, Giants(contender) and Astros(bottom feeder), tonight's 7 pm (ET) game. Seriously, I know Lincecum is the reigning 2 time Cy Young, but the Giants barely get coverage on ESPN otherwise, and the Astros have been ignored since Clemens left town. |

I agree, I have NO desire to watch the Astros and Giants right now. But, from a marketing standpoint, San Francisco and Houston are big cities (Houston's, like, #5 in US population) and the Giants are a popular draw for whatever reason (usually among geezers over 60 who remember the REAL Dusty Rhodes). |

Touche. I turn the game on now and to no surprise, the Giants are up 5-0 in the 8th. Woo. |

Rumor is that MLB Network is being switched over to Comcast's "Digital preferred sports package" in some markets. I like that channel; especially the old games and archival footage; but I'm not crazy how they run 6-8 hours a night of "MLB Tonight", non-stop. <sarcasm> A studio show with Mitch Williams and Harold Reynolds... where do I sign up?!! </sarcasm? |

What an ugly game last night's Marlins/Mets game was. The Marlins allowed 5 runs over the course of the 7th and 8th inning, with the bullpen walking 4 batters, hitting one, and balking in the game tying run. The Mets didn't score a run all game off a hit. |
