I'm the minority in this, but as a hardcore fan, I don't like attending Opening Day. OD is for everyone else. They get drunk and act stupid and generally make it annoying for all the people that want to be there for the stuff on the field, not to see and be seen. I love OD's like this where we're home the whole weekend. I'm going on Sunday, I didn't stand in the cold or pay an arm and a leg for the tickets and I should be able to enjoy the game without as much of the stupidity.

 

 

I'm with you. I've got no time or patience for half the "fans" at today's game, and I'm not some old-phart either. (No offense ment to those who are a bit more aged than myself.)

 

Plus I agree, the ticket price is too much for me to justify. I'm going tomorrow, it's part of my 20-game pack anyway.

 

This morning on Bob and Brian, some woman called up saying she had a parking pass for todays game but no ticket. Said she had a group of 60 going but only 20 of them actually had tickets. Bob practically tore her a new one. Telling her it's people like her that ruin opening day, for the people who actually have a ticket to get into the game, would like to tailgate in the lots, but can't because of people like her just going to party in the parking lots.

I would think we will figure Sanchez out sooner or later. Pretty much all fastballs. That wont get him 2-3 times through on order like the Brewers have. Hell have to show something offspeed

I don't get the all-fastball thing so far, either...I could've sworn he's supposed to have a pretty good breaking pitch. Sanchez has always put up some pretty gaudy K numbers in the minors, though, so he's been doing something right.

Sanchez's fastball has a lot of side to side movement and has a nice rise to it, that's the nasty part, but eventually if he keeps piping fastballs and we quit chasing he'll get lit up.
