I know it's a day early but it's one of the best sporting days of the year. Things kick off around noon with the brewers at the mets but there's a 90% chance of rain. Yanks at the stros mid afternoon and cubs at the rangers for a night game. And a bunch of others going on as well.

Happy opening day.

It's going to be a badass time for sure. Congrats again & have fun! The first title is the most amazing feeling. Relish every second.

Now, I hope you lose by 10 tomorrow, lose 80 games this year and all y'all's herpes flair up!

Not surprising but wow, that's bad.

Can we turn this into the Baseball, Misc. thread where we don't talk about the Astros or the Rangers?

Just fun general stuff and discussions and trivia and "hey look at this?"

Like, hey, Arizona scored 14 runs in an inning without a homer last night?

I think that is a great idea. You wanna have a forum for your team (Braves, Cubs, O's, etc) have at it.

I think this is a good place to talk general MLB.

Some teams continue a losing streak or start a winning streak on Opening Day. Only one gets to extend a winning streak.

I was bummed not to get him in fantasy baseball this year, but the guy I'm most fascinated in watching in '24 is Elly de la Cruz of the Reds. He finished 7th in NL ROY in just 98 games last year with # that projected to 113 runs, 11 triples, 21 homers and 59 steals.
He started off yesterday going for 3 with 2 runs scored, a walk, and a steal.

him vs Oneil Cruz should be interesting to watch
