Wish I was in Arizona, or Florida. I’m ready for Opening Day!

#NotGood At least there's the Pirates to take last place.

Opening Day - it’s on! Okay, the Rangers will be better this year (hard to be worse than last year) with the additions of Semien, Seager, and Garver, but the pitching isn’t there yet. So I’ll go with the next best thing at the ballpark - Mac-n-cheese Nachos.

Very cool, Ken! It's a miserable day here weather wise, will be surprised if it actually happens. But it looks gorgeous there, enjoy!

Where's all of those Braves fans? And Jerry?

Actually that’s a picture from last year. The Rangers are opening this year on Friday (tomorrow) in Toronto, where it’s currently raining with temperature in the 40s. Home opener here is Monday, and with the retractable roof it won’t matter what the weather is - if it’s too cold, too hot, or raining they’ll just close the roof. Our youngest son is taking me to the game, should have good seats (he’s got friends in low places).

Meanwhile today I’m currently watching the cheating Brewers play the Cubs at Wrigley, while waiting for the Pirates at St. Louis to start later this afternoon.

I'm here. Just got back from lunch with my buds. Cubs vs Brewers are headed into the bottom of the 2nd @ zip - zip.

Nats/Mets 0-0 in the Fourth. With today's weather I'm shocked they're even playing. 50° and dumped rain all morning.

Cubs started off the season right by beating the Brewers 5-4. Hang in there boyz. Keep it up.

Probably a good indication of how this season will go.

John, it is disheartening but it's only one game. Come back and talk to me sometime around the end of May.

Boo Yah! Wouldn't you know the Royals phenom, Bobby Witt Jr., provides the go ahead runs to win the game on Opening Day!

Cleveland 1
Royals 3

I hope we have something good to talk about, Jerry. But the Nats unloaded a lot of decent players late last season and didn't pick up any replacements. I think this will be another transition year, which sucks for us fans.

It is really weird to see Anthony Rizzo in a Yankee uniform.

Nats get their first win!

So true Jerry.

Cubs lost to the Brew Crew by one run. Sugar Booger.

I’ll be going to see this one!

It took 10 innings but the Cubs took down Atlanta 6-3. The home run by Patrick Wisdom, in the top of the 10th, sealed the deal.

All is not lost Ferg. Cincinnati is still the home of WCKY.

Cubs managed to take one from Milwaukee.

With a solid 7-3 win today following a decisive win yesterday, the lowly Rangers managed to take 2 out of 3 from the prevailing world champion Atlanta Braves. As usual pitching is the name of the game. A couple of the Rangers youngsters looked pretty good. And Adolis Garcia continues to rake!

Ken

Man, I was kinda pumped about my Royals. But......um.....

The potential is there, but the execution is lacking.

Baseball??? What's baseball??? Not being played in DC this year unfortunately.

Sure it is - maybe just not by the Nationals.
