they can straight up mash the ball - their bullpen as we saw today still will be a liability. Bonifacio has been a pleasant surprise so far - not sure he'll keep anywhere close to this pace up but if he does they will be a dangerous team.

Andrew Miller is finally throwing something other than fastball - he just isnt locating well. His 6th inning releif appearance went pretty bad.

3-0 is a good start but the Nationals are terrible (again) so it will be interesting to see what the Marlins can do once the rest of the NL East comes calling starting this Friday with NYM.

Looks like the Braves will sweep the defending champions.

Nice start for them.

:lol: at Phills

Nope didn't happen. The Braves bullpen let them down tonight.

But there revamped rotation looks really good so far. I'm interested in seeing what Kawakami can do.

Uehara looked really good today shuting down the Yankees. I'm just wondering who got the better Japanes import.

Bring on the Muts!!

I miss living down there. I had season tickets in the outfield, $8 seats, and I could move and sit behind home plate for 90% of the games. My wife held her companies seats in the club level with the A/C, we'd use them when it got hot.

Now, I have the Knights to get my live baseball fix.

:lol: @ you and the other half dozen Brave's fans that sent me :"Bring out the broom!" text messages.

I like the Marlins team and their chances.......if I had to put money on a NL East champ, it would be them. I can see the Phillies finishing 4th honestly. Should be a competitive NL East though.

Yea, I was a little leary about the Cantu pickup last year, but he certainly delivered. It's working out nicely this year with him at first and Bonaficio at third. Cantu's defense has been great and his hitting has continued to impress. Hip! Hip! Jorge!

      Kicker

      Well, they're both in the same league (if you will). During preseason, Fitz went 3/3 & Sauls went 5/6, but of course Sauls was 4/4 last night (including one 50+). Both were Lou Groza Award finalists. I believe Fitz made two 55+ yarders last season, while Sauls led the nation with three. Fitz was 13/13 (💯) while Sauls was 21/24 (87.5). Fitz was a 3rd-Team AP All-American, while Sauls was a PFF All-American.  Career-wise, Fitz was 58/74 (78.4), while Sauls was 52/64 (81.3). I wish that I could see the attempts and knew the depth of yardage. I wish that we could compare practice kicks during their training camps, but we can't. Maybe someone with a PFF/CFF account can give that Basically it's just a matter of belief I guess. Seeing dude knock down four FGs and go perfect during a pressure-filled game for him is damned impressive if you ask me. I don't believe that Fitzgerald could do that.  That being said, I'd have to know more. I will say that it may be worth mentioning that we seem to like PFF this year and Sauls being a PFF All-American may be notable. Now that being said, the Panthers may not be even considering Sauls.

      Preseason over..2025 predictions

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      Ive said it 1000x times on here.  Our 2025 season will be dictated by the first 4 games.  poo the bed there and lose all confidence and momentum, we win 5 games maybe.  Go 2-2, 3-1 we got a look at 7/8 wins

      Preseason over..2025 predictions

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      I basically made almost the exact predictions on a phone call with a buddy about 3 weeks ago. I really do expect Evero gone before the seasons end, Young to just not able to get over the hump enough and DC to head into next season on a VERY hot seat.
