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!

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      By 52Beast · Posted

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
