There is not much better than a Sunday afternoon filled with MLB. Here's to a great day of baseball!

MLB network's Sunday morning couldn't be worse. Always air some atrocious baseball movie when an entire slate of games could be previewed.

I normally don't look at fantasy standings until at least May 1st, but Cutline has changed that. I really like this format for baseball. I'm glad I tried it, but wish I had more than one team.

It's unfortunate is that these runs are being charges as earned.

Yea, it sucks, but if error not charged then really no other way to score it. I know you know that, but just saying I don't see them ever charging those type plays as errors.

Lester's inability to hold runners close has always baffled me. However, having said that Story thrown out trying to steal 2nd.

It's looking like Nicasio is a great matchup play. Against bad teams his stat line looks great but you gotta sit him against tougher competition.

Saw that Chris Johnson of the Marlins was pinch run for by J.T. Realmuto, a catcher. Not something that occurs too frequently.

Twarnt nothing but a little fish kill! :D :lol:
Baseball is a slow, boring, complex, cerebral game that doesn't lend itself to histrionics. You 'take in' a baseball game, something odd to say about a football or basketball game, with the clock running and the bodies flying.
