How's your team looking this year? What player/players are you excited about? Which team do you dislike? I'm a long time Cardinals follower. Unsure what this year will hold from them. A 4-2 start looks pretty good. Bats have been lively. Hope to heck the young outfielders can stay healthy and be productive. Cards are in Boston (I think we have a Sox fan or two) to open Fenway tomorrow. Sox seem to own St. Louis so I'm hoping the Cards can take one of three this weekend. As far as dislikes, I know the Cubs are the Cardinals' rivals but I just can't work up any dislike for them. I'll take the usual - big spending Dodgers and Yankees.

I've been a Sox fan since I was 3 (circa '72). Sox look good on paper this year, but we'll have to see how it plays out. The kid Kristian Campbell looks like the real deal in the first week, we'll have to see how he handles things when teams make adjustments on him. As a Sox fan, I hate the Yankees with a burning passion. I respect the ability of some of the players, but despise the organization as a whole.
Not a fan of the Dodgers per se, but I am still a fan of Mookie Betts from his days with the Sox, and Ohtani is just fun to watch.
I'm still trying to wrap my head around "torpedo bats" as well.

YIKES!!! Fan of the Atlanta Braves, 0-7 to start the season, not good since there in a tough division with the Phillies and Mets. Maybe some home cooking this weekend will turn things around?
I have family in Arizona, so I follow the D-Backs, and my next store neighbor is the aunt of the team executive vice president Mike Hazen, who used to work back here for the Redsox.
The Dodgers pretty much bought the World Series last year, and starting this season 8-0 they will most likely be there again with that ridiculous payroll, so I’m hoping maybe the Padres or D-Backs can give them a run for the money so to speak.
I would like to know what the average cost is for Dodgers tickets?

MRP - as a coincidence, I listened to a good part of the Sox Orioles game today on the MLB app while I was out running errands. You are right about Campbell. I listened to the Sox broadcast and the announcers were raving about the kid. He had a good day too. As far as the torpedo bats are concerned, they mentioned that Bregman (spelling?) tried one and went back to his old bat today. He had a good day as well if I remember correctly. I enjoyed the Red Sox broadcast.
TrekStar - I feel for you brother. I grew up watching Skip Carey and Ernie Johnson on WTBS. Still have an affection for the team. My friend and I do yearly baseball trips to see the Cardinals play in other ballparks each year. This year we're headed to Atlanta and I'm pretty stoked. Not Fulton County Stadium but it will still be cool!
I feel like all teams should be allowed to just take a forfeit when they play the Dodgers. Not only do they win but it's a soul-crushing win. I watched last night as the Braves jumped out to a 5-0 lead only to watch it disappear late in the game. Gotta be hard on folks. Instead of playing the opposition just takes the three games off and relaxes somewhere. Dodgers can go count their money for three days.Comment
