This is exactly how I see him.  Totally useful player, one every team needs, but maybe not a starter.  Although I thought he had decent gap power in the minors.  

Fletcher has more pop in his bat, better defense, better contact and more speed than Stella. While his future may be as a utility guy, he's a better option to start at 2B IMO, and especially on opening day. I hope Stella proves me wrong, but i've never been a fan.

Interesting to see Albert batting 5th even without Upton or Ohtani in the lineup. Where is the guy that kept saying it was in Albert's contract to bat 3rd or 4th?

The crowd appears to be in the hundreds today in Oakland, LMAO!

[GrittyVeterans]

I'm excited. Happy Opening Day all

They are all still out enjoying the Oakland Farmer's Market outside the stadium.

My favorite part of that is this:

Serious question, is it Justin "Bore" or "BOW-er" ?

I am almost positive it is BOW-er

[2112]

Probability of a Trout HR in the first?

Couple hard hit balls and nothing to show for it....  oh well.  Time for a 1-2-3 inning on defense

I was wrong 

[nando714]

Some good wood on the balls 

 

[nando714]

If Cahill can go a solid 5 innings that’d be nice 

[rafibomb]

lmao of course two hard hit outs for us but they get a bloop single leading off

[Glen]

We're gonna get no-hit.
