This could be the year. I actually have hope that the Buccos can break the streak this year.

Fat chance. Wink  Hope springs eternal though. 
 
I am listening to the Yankees and Tigers game, and the Tigs just gave up their first run of the Spring.

There's talk already if the Cards fall out of contention that Carpenter would be dealt to the Yanks to save the 15M to sign Albert for 2012...but then again if they dump Carpenter why would Albert stay?

  He went 4-1 with a 3.80 ERA in 64 games as a key contributor last season for the National League East champions.

He earned $2 million as a fungible middle reliever. We have a bunch of identical guys ready to start in the majors. He was delaying their development and being overpaid.

It seemed just like yesterday that he was pitching for that other also-ran team the KC Royals.

LOL  Must be nice to have an embarrassment of riches within a pitching staff.  I'd kill to have a middle reliever with an ERA under 5.00.  Durbin was actually a pretty decent pitcher for the Tigers when he was here in 2007.

Indeed, every now and then they can throw a CG and give the relief a break.  Tongue

Yeah everyone around here is giddy with anticipation.  Games have been selling out quickly.

The Cardinals announced today that Adam Wainwrights 'Tommy John' surgery went well. How can it be known until he actually can pitch off a mound?

I think the Tigers are going to surprise some people this year.

Too early to call Yankees as WS Champions?
Wait, of course not.

Oh and really, the Phillies should have quite a year.
No way to know how it'll translate into real life, but under 100 wins for them have to be a disappointment.

A bit back on a station here, he was comparing the '11 Phillies pitching staff to the Braves of the early 90's and how they are at least equal, plus the offense. Quite a scary team.

Amazing what happens when a team spends money! Wink
