Good to see fresh, Tes, Zim and now Smitty. Where is Logic? Overdosing on the chowder? More likely somewhere on Federal Hill in Providence bellying up to some great Italian food.

They sure have plenty there. Is the stripes in the middle of the streets in Providence still the colors of the Italian flag?

Northern NH has a foot of snow still in the valleys. Can remember how damp to the bone Fenway can be in early April. Red Sox are looking sensational in Spring training. Best record in all ob baseball. Now to carry that for 162 more games. The team looks Fantastic at the mound, on the field, and at the plate. Looking forward to an exciting year right into the WS in Oct!

Parts of Newton have stripes in the colors of the Italian flag, too. Nonantum...well at least the snow is melting away quickly with all the warm weather and now it's raining a bit. Much like it rained on Sale's nearly perfect 6 innings. That game really stunk after Sale came out. Got slow, boring and the relievers were awful.

Helluva way to start the season. Tampa's offense sucks. The only way they come back is to walk em all around the bases.

Opening day, Giancarlo Santos shows why he's worth all that $$$ for the Yankees. JD Martinez shows why the Sox made a big mistake.

Bettances helped out the Sox by having his second poor outing, proving I made a mistake by drafting him on my fantasy team. But the Sox surely can't melt down every game like that first one? I agree that we need to be patient, and remind everyone one game out of 162 is not as big a deal as one in 80 to 82. This isn't hockey or basketball. And it sure isn't football. It's a grind. Playing .667 ball is going to be good enough to win the division.

Yes, I should think they will do pretty well. But let's not get too excited until we play a true MLB team. Tampa is AAAA, and I'm pretty sure Miami is too. Then we open at home against...um, Tampa. We will not have played a non-Florida team for the first two weeks, practically. But 3-1 is certainly a good start.

Three out of every four would give them what? 120 wins? Even with one meltdown every 4 games

Yes, 120 wins gives them a meltdown every four games and two extra meltdowns, too. LOL

Hanley came through. It's a little bittersweet. If Hanley plays well it's good for the team. But... he'll get the at bats to kick in another year. His history is he plays well every ... other year. Travis is ready to play first now. His salary is way below Hanley. Without his $$ next year they have salary tax room to add better younger players.

Nice win. Next up is a major league team rather than the AAA+ teams they've played so far
