Today, for the first time ever, the Angels and Cardinals are playing each other without Albert Pujols in either lineup.

Imagine banking on a 39 year old, a 40 year old, a first timer in North America, and Peterson who sucks. I am shocked it’s not working out

Poor decision in hindsight of course. But those aren’t just any 39 and 40 year olds. Scherzer came off a great season and Verlander won the Cy Young. They’re both on short term deals as opposed to deGrom who didn’t want to stay anyway.

I never thought Senga would show up and be great. I remember the hype for Dice-K and he wasn’t very good right away either.

Peterson and Cookie suck. Megill is being asked to do a lot of heavy lifting and is best as a long reliever.

Only solace is all of the guys they let go or missed - Bassitt, Walker, Rodon - aren’t doing shit either.

I’m not shocked it hasn’t panned out as planned either but I don’t know what the alternatives were. Also, it’s still super early, let’s reassess at Memorial Day

Peterson sucks. Hunter sucks.

I just got back from the game. Brutal.

None of the innings were huge for that Nationals but they scored 1 or 2 in 7 out of 8. The pitching was bad, the fielding was bad, and the base running was bad (picked off at first with the bases loaded?!). Glad it was a nice day and there was nobody at the stadium.

The catcher stood up and I said out loud, "Oh f***, he's got'em," and he did. :laugh:

I think I should just stop going to games in D.C. because I don't think I've ever seen the Mets or Islanders win there.

Go to Philadelphia more often. You seem to do well there.
