Well its that time of year. Opening Day. Yay?
Man, I used to love Baseball Opening Day. So much hope. If this falls right, and that goes our way, and if that guy has a great year, then we can win it!
But, I’m jaded now. When your team has a publicly stated goal of going 87-75 every year and maintaining a profit, it’s hard to get more excited than they do.
But its a fun time to look at stats anyway. It is baseball after all. So lets open up to a couple of pages.
