yeah Samardzija is awesome. I picked him up in most of my fantasy leagues this year.

Don't even care about the K's - huge positive that Huddy is pitching as well as he is.

Let's backdoor a W.

Great start to the season. Loved seeing Huddy pitch that well. Really huge for us.

ZiPS has them projected with a similar OBP for the season, but BJ is a pretty clearly superior offensive player (assuming they get on base at the same clip - which seems reasonable) due to his slugging.

If we are going to give the most plate appearances on the team to one of BJ or Simmons, I think I pick BJ pretty easily - at least for now.

Man that was a blast. I wonder if he'll get plunked soon for pimping every HR he hits.

BJ > Simmons is an absolute no-brainer to leadoff

The real question is what to do once they both are OBPing around .300 in mid-May (which seems likely). I guess you just punt the leadoff spot a la Dusty Baker or put Uggla up there.

Heyward and Simmons have been popping everything up - should be something that can be corrected, but it's kind of brutal to watch at the moment.

So pumped at Justin Upton's start. In the far back of my mind I thought there might be a chance some of his power numbers were a bit inflated by Chase Field and he might not have legit power.

Glad that fear was put to rest immediately.
