MLB Daily Thread: 4.7.15 Daily: Gray 1-hits Texas, Giants, Royals triumph, Yanks suck

[WhiteMamba]

Whoever starts the Daily Thread, I added the old thread prefix back (you can see it on this one).

So did I do it right? Anchor Down? I had to steal your thunder.

Sonny's curve was workin

8-0 over Tejas has me in a good mood. Opening day Ws are just 1 win but that was nice.

Yankee fans walked out of the stadium feeling miserable and dejected. And when they got home ...people laughed at them.

I don't see what the big deal is. Tanaka told us he would have no velocity this year and then he kept his word. Not every day you see a 26-year old slinging the ball like Jamie Moyer.

No day baseball?

Yeah that's such a huge tease to have all those day games yesterday, and then to have none today - and only 7 games total. Too many teams with that second day off.

So tired of your constant negativity towards Yambag. Why do you hate freedom so much?

Bobby Parnell seems to be recovering on schedule, so the hope is that we would have plenty of potential closers/setup men. But with the way arms be snappin' off left and right, you can never have enough pitching depth.
