Souza out for the year. Given the long list of injuries, it looks like his knee was shredded apart.

Home plate is so dangerous it can completely destroy your knee, good lord.

Opening day eve ladies and gents!!!

Still looking for action to sweat out the season as per tradition in here. I know I'm too low stakes for most people but always fun having some over/unders so before I place them with an lol book gonna give a last call for over/unders I'm looking for here. Just really looking for $25 per but willing to go more on LOL Mets

Mets u85.5
Red Sox o94.5
Reds u79
Nats o88.5


Also looking for a west coast game to sweat with mlb.tv so if you have one of those you like I'll take the opposite side if you like one of the above


And the NL East bets I posted before. Basically h2h to win NL East, individual teams v. Mets, neither wins no bet, or straight up h2h individual teams v. Mets (at odds of course). Will also do Nats -3 wins v. Mets

I didn't realize the season was starting with a full weekend of games. Is this the first year they haven't done the 1 game on Sunday night and then full slate on Monday?


Also, why the **** is Tropicana, the most depressing stadium ever, hosting an opening day game. I will be betting the over at 6.5 with Snell and Verlander though.

LFC,

I'll take Mets over 85.5 and Nats under 88.5 for $25 a piece. Quote to confirm.


I'll do under 82.5 for Angels also if you want a West Coast sweat.

All 3 booked. Thanks TX gl

I probably owe it to myself to watch some more Mike Trout anyway. Always hated the Angel's as a yankee fan though. Gl gl

Re: .400,

The higher variance in BA from lesser AB's by a patient hitter won't make up for the fact that that player's hitting strategy isn't conducive to achieving a high BA, so I agree with dome that the kind of hitters he's suggesting has the best shot.

Nah, they did it last year. Also for a couple years at the start of the decade, iirc.

Ichiro and Gwynn were the last great hopes for .400. I don't think that type of hitter is being cultivated currently.

If some non-idiot figures out he can to go the other way and bunt against the shift it's the best chance for .400

True, it is false but getting them to stop shifting you is the whole idea! Watching these morons drive ball after ball into the heart of the shift makes me want to throw things at the TV.

The best is when they hit a rocket directly to the shortstop and he doesn't even have to move. It's like you could literally hit it anywhere else and get a hit. Idiot hitters.

They're just jelly. Jim Carrey getting that contract first should be at the top of the list.
