Good for Tanner he has earned it. Martin had a good end to the year last year and was probably most fans favorite to get the call after Yu was scratched but he hasn't exactly performed great thus far this Spring and Tanner beat him out. Based on performance I think the right choice is Tanner, now let's see what he brings opening day. Should be interesting for sure

haha thats not a true stat, cuz darvish started against seattle 2 years ago in what I believe was our home opener. It was his first "major league start" as well

Colby started 2012 at rbpia

dang i thought i was onto something there. I couldve sworn we started the first 3 games on the road, with yu as our #4 starter coming into the home opener against seattle. I just remember everyone making a huge deal over the ichiro vs darvish thing.

Well, that would certainly ease some fears.

That's only 2-3 spins through the rotation. We'll be fine from the pitching side of it

I find this hilarious for many reasons. The greatest being the least intentional funny poster ever at LSB is in love with Hanson.

Does that mean we are keeping Kirkman? One good ST showing is all it took.

Bennie is on ESPN saying that because Bob Nightengale thinks Odor would be able to come in and produce then he should be on the opening day roster and start at 2B. Oh Bennie..

I made the mistake of reading a few things over there earlier, Bennie still blaming JD for not signing pitching instead of Choo and not trading Kinsler for pitching prospects? It's just a beating over there w all the Facebook posters, guess I was feeling a bit masochistic today

Just noticed that Lewis is going into the 5th inning of a 0-0 game. More encouraging news.

Very good to see, and Moreland and Rosales w the only hits so far who woulda think it

I just don't need a 2' sandwich. Why can't they offer it in 6'', 1', or 2'. What if I don't even like the damn thing? There goes $26.


I also heard they're keeping the boomstick. All the games I've been to and I still haven't had one.

I really don't splurge on ball park food. I would love to sit in an AYCE area once though. Just to try it.
