do you thing a gals will finally catch up to clay buchholz on the all-time no hitters list this year?

[Robo-Chachi]

Here I was, all pumped about the Royals. Then, in a matter of weeks, Salvador Perez and Joakim Soria were down and 2nd base was platooned by Yuniesky Betancourt/Chris Getz.

[Sweet Gregory Pectin]

robo i say this with all sincerity

i like the royals and wish them nothing but the best within certain limitations

It will be interesting to see how the Phillies rebound from the worst season in their storied history.

i'm glad the fanbase is no longer flattering the team with "world series or bust" sentiments, for what that's worth

How do you feel about this season? I think the pitching is going to be great but there is no way that lineup is going to provide enough run support to win games. Casey Kotchman was not the free agent signing I was hoping for. Brantley and Kipnis could have breakout seasons I think.

But there was Pineda on Sunday afternoon, touching 94 mph and hitting 93 on several other occasions. Was it the mid-90s fastball he threw in last year's first half? No, but there's time for that yet.

when you break down in May, I guess spring training is technically your "first half" though

[clown]

damn, Pineda's going down in May? that suuuuucks

if only they had depth at starting pitching

I think the rotation will be alright. If (and when) someone falls apart in the rotation such as Lowe or tomlin, there's enough guys to cover for them. I don't have much faith in Brantley but I really like Kipnis, he's going to be great. Kotchman/Hannahan are going to be solid on defense with all of our ground ball pitchers. My worry is the bullpen not being as good as it was last year.

I am hoping for no less than 85 wins.

I don't think it's completely unreasonable considering they were 80-82 with a lot of injuries to core players last year. Vegas has the Indians pinned for an O/U of 78.5.
