I want Buehrle, Crede, Dye, and Iguchi gone by the end of the day for some A ball players.

Ah, the Ledge Quotient (LQ)
Oh, wait, we really weren't in 2005, were we?

At least Contreras got out of the inning...

Physician, heal thyself
Good advice, though. Disn't Ohio State run back the opening kickoff, then Florida rammed the rest of the game down their throat in the BCS game in Jamuary. Don't take the initial impression as a portent for the whole season.
(Whistling past the graveyard, am I...)
Agreed...

Masset
This is like my worst fear
I'm watching a nightmare in the making.
I'm at work and all my customers are saying, "Take it easy, it's the first game of the season."
I hate that statement. EVERY GAME MATTERS!
And this game is making me hurt really bad

I guess he looks OK when you compare him to Jose's outing

He's looked good so far.

Not too high or low on either of them so far...
Sisquatch looked fine (bordering on good)

I'm pulling another positive of this being a good day to have to use the bullpen (if there is such a thing). No game tomorrow means time to rest the arms.

Molina
deficit cut to 7
was at the game today
Unfortunately.....
Frustrating way to start the season.....I know Contreras's forkball wasn't there and I realize he doesn't possess an overpowering fastball, but his arm might be dead...those fastballs were more hittable than I've ever seen from him...bad sign.
Pssssh!
Whatever...
Maybe we can start a "Most pessimistic post" award or something...

The only positive about that....
By the way, I have some below face value tics on sale at Stubhub. There are actually a bunch of really good below face value tics available that day on stubhub. Mine has the added advantage of including a parking pass (sec 111 row 11).
You heard it here first.
Westbrook
Not a Surprise
We seriously need a reliable starting pitcher. If I was KW I would be on the phone with Mr. Clemens. He may be old, he may be expensive but he would have an excellent chance at a sub 3.00 ERA. I know Chicago is not on his list but I would give it a try. For all of the nay sayers do you have a more feasible alternative? If KW stays with this staff we may be lucky to win 80 games.
