Effin atrocious AB Hamilton, what a joke

Wow nice to see Albert not go after that. Show us what your worth Hammy

Albert will get doubled up to get Mike home

It's inevitable

Has this offense done anything to give us confidence that we can claw back from behind? Nope

CJ is to DiPoto what Wells was to Reagins...most overpaid and over hyped team in the league once again. Very frustrating

Another disastrous start for CJ and for the Halos to start a season. Digging a big hole just like last year. I'd be shocked if we put up more than a 2 spot tonight. Early season tail spins are the norm

Now come on Josh, an extra base hit to lead off would sure be nice

Yes sir!!! Welcome to the club Burnett!!!!

Atta boy Garrett!! Time to see if Burnett has a pair

Our lack of depth off the bench rears its head in the opener...sweet

By the end of April it will be DiPoto for, despite being praised for shedding Wells, leaving us vulnerable in the pitching dept

I'm not sure our offensive depth is going to matter all that much given how questionable our staff is going into the season

Have we seen enough of him to determine that? We thought the same thing about guys like Wood and McPherson too. Wells was a decent glove as well. I hope Calhoun pans out, I like the kid a lot but to call him a known at this point is a reach, but I like the optimism.

Still question marks abound...don't say Calhoun, he is still an unknown at this point.

Not that Wells instilled confidence, but we still have significant depth issues IMO

I agree. I don't love this and it does not sound as if we're getting anything worthy in return other than getting under the luxury tax threshold.

He'll have LF to himself until Grandy returns and then Gardner likely shifts back

Our bench is certainly not the deepest, health of our core is imperative.

I like that some of our youth will get better and longer looks off the bench (Calhoun). If Yanks take on 5 mil per its a solid deal

Precursor to a Lohse signing? In the spirit of speculation

I'm trying to be hopeful that, given out pitching concerns and the spring Wells is having, that we get a decent, close to being ready for the bigs arm at the very least. Anything else is not worth it at this point. I'm not 100% feeling Bourjos' bat in the lineup everyday yet

Some of my Yankee friends are saying the deal is for a low level prospect but I'm calling BS. Lot of speculation still

Good morning all - a buddy and I are starting up an MLB Standings and Playoff Predictor Pool, basically you predict the standings (1-5) for each division and then the playoffs throughout the WS up front before the season starts, then sit back and watch the season unfold.
