MLB 2016 Regular Season Official Thread - Do Not Attempt to Ketchup

CygnusXS

will gain confidence one day
It's Minor League Opening Day! Lucas Sims and Mike Soroka are pitching!

And I'll be in Squamish all day with no internet!

...I've made a huge mistake.

So Matheny sat Grichuk yesterday because Mabry told him Liriano "got in his head".

Oh boy.

Carlos Correa may have called his shot last night before the game in his best @RealMichaelKay impression.

He's trying, you can feel how eager he is but he can't grip it. Pretty frustrating to watch. He'll swing at anything

I think he will put it together. He can #BeLikeMaik

Also if Galvis plays well all season I think we see him being moved to 2nd with Crawford coming up later this season (he should at least)

Some of Jays fans worst fears are reality.

Rogers' bungling of their NHL product combined the fact that all the Canadian NHL teams suck and missed the playoffs has directly impacted advertising revenues for the Blue Jays, both last year during their post-deadline run, and will continue to do so this year.

http://www.theglobeandmail.com/spor...offs-hints-at-rogers-turmoil/article29548827/

because ratings for hockey on Rogers networks are so bad right now, ad customers are not receiving the promised exposure so Rogers has to give away ad space from other programming for free, including Jays games.
 
This Stumpf kid has nasty stuff but his control is all over the place. But wow some of those pitches...

EDIT: Oooof. Welp, not much a major league debut.

The bar downstairs has been super loud for 2 hours now. And it's just a bit over 11 AM.

Yep, it's Opening Day.

I can get 40% off any Papa John's pizza because of George Springers Grand Slam last night?

#PapaSlam :jnc

Worst fucking promotion ever. Papa John's gives 50% off just for the Yankees scoring 6+ runs last night. So much worse than DomiNoNo's.

Wait...what???

http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/1...spect-matt-bush-rediscovery-unlikely-comeback

When the minor league season began this April in Double-A Frisco, it made official one of the unlikeliest comebacks in the long history of the sport. Matt Bush is now throwing 100 mph, and the Rangers believe he has the talent to make an impact as a reliever in the major leagues, maybe as soon as this season. "I'm set up in the perfect position," Bush says, and yet he's made a mess of that same setup more than once before.
