GG Opening Night_Ramblings

I didn't even watch the game, so my ramblings will be from the boxscore.

1. Myers is a shell(fish). He managed to make the punchless Braves look PUNCHY! And this happened with an ump who had a very generous strike zone!!! With myers pitching IN COLORADO this week, don't tell you i didn't warn you. At this point, I view Chan Ho Park a better spec play than Myers.

2. Ryan Howard picked up where he left off last season. 0-4 with 2 K's. And this was against a RH.

3. Lowe looked good againt a nice lineup

Anyone want to drop some Schaefer manlove on this thread?

As for Howard... Lowe's sinker was extra nasty last night for it being a cool night on opening day. That wont show up in a boxscore...

And Schaefer looks like a gamer... I'll admit it... The ManLove is brewing... Physically I think of Hunter Pence when I saw him last night (with better wheels and a + glove)

Schaefer will be a player over the long run - but before you shower him will all your candy and kisses DO REMEMBER how Lidge undressed him. Double AA'er will be learning on the job this year.

Where can a boxscore revealing strike zones be procured?

Upon seeing you not watching the games, keep your bloody opinions about players to yourself.

I called out "Jeff Francoeur two bucks" in MIDDLE of SAT nights auction...to crickets.

I elbowed the guys next to me and whispered "steal of the draft"...to a fist bump and a Chianti to Tecate toast!

He freaking turned on the ball so fast, I actually feared for the people in the left field bleachers like I would when a bat goes into the stands...that ball was moving FAST when it hit that guys glove for a homer.

How did you know the umpire had a "very generous strike zone" from the box score?
