One week in. What do you think about your team so far?

If Dickerson and Moran hit, we are going to score alot more runs than people thought, because I think Polanco is going to go off this year.

Dead.

All dead.

I'm at an 8 on a scale of 1-10.

Bullpen was projected to be the best in baseball by a comfortable margin. After 7 games, they've been lousy, but there's too much talent there for this to continue.

The offense (outside of Gregorius) has also been largely underwhelming, but again, this team minus Stanton scored the 2nd most runs in MLB last season. They will find their footing and heat up with the weather.

All will be well.

The Pirates haven't sucked

 

[Ojb81]

The Reds? Oh, the reds suck, per the norm

 

[black francis]

That they suck dick
even more dick than I thought

 

[dougplayer]

Tigers could be the sleeper team..
Wake them up before September please

 

[broncosmitty]

I think they have the best defense in recent memory. (For the Tigers.)


A solid to good lineup.


And dogshit pitching.

Anyone that has a solid first half, that isn't in their first three seasons, will be traded. Other than Cabrera. Cuz nobody is taking that contract.

The bottom will not be this season. Hopefully that is 2019. But it could be 2020.

The Stros are in first place, are 8-2, and have the best team ERA in the Majors.

However,

• The team as a whole is not hitting lately,
• Giles scares me when he comes in for a save. Missed blowing the save last night by a ball that was 1'-6" foul (if that),
• the Angels appear much improved and don't look like they are going to finish 21 games out this year.

They have won, but nothing has been very spectacular or impressive. The season is a marathon and not a sprint so I'll take 8-2 and see where they go from here.
