My baseball craving is starting to really get amped up now


No doubt

The second football season ends, my focus shifts. It's probably just me being excited, but I really feel good about this year.

I wish I did.

I'm worried we'll be 3rd in the East.

It is possible.

I don't think the Marlins did enough. I see them finishing around .500 but in 4th place.

Nats are interesting and if they would have gotten Prince I would probably put them ahead of us, but I don't trust their lineup. No real improvement over last year and our lineup outscored them. Well, every team in our division outscored them. Their pitching will definitely improve with the additions of Stras and Gio for the full year, but call me a homer, I still like our 5 over theirs.

And our bullpen is better which is undeniable. So if we have the better offense, better bullpen, and probably the better rotation, I think we edge them out for 2nd.

It will probably be within 5 games, though.

I can't see that rotation holding up but I guess we will see.

One thing is for sure, and that is that I'm ready to face Zambrano 4 or 5 times this year.

Strasburg/Gio/Zimmermann/E-Jax/Lannan

Pretty solid rotation.

All things are possible through Frediot.

I'm going to set the early O/U on the number of games his infinite stupidity costs us at 6.5

I'm expecting a big bounce back year from him.

One of the main reasons I'm very optimistic for this season.

Yeah, I would love to go to that game, but I have a pass to the Masters that day! I'm pretty stoked about that. I've never been before.
