While both Sale and Price looked good, keep in mind, it's the Rays.
 
Meanwhile, Bogaerts is 5 for 8 (.625); all other Red Sox batters so far are 10 for 57 (.175).
I do know it's the Rays, but Price's control was fantastic.  
 
I thought Price looked better than Sale to be honest.

Aaron Judge is the tallest player at 6 feet 7 inches to start center field.  Only one other player started center field at this height.

Fingers crossed this is a good Porcello year. I'll even take average.

The Yankees undefeated quest has come to an end.

Porcello isn't looking too bad but he's having trouble putting guys away. If he was just inches over on some of his throws he'd throw more strikes and less pitches. Already up to 50 pitches after 3. If there's one thing to work on, it's being more economical with pitches, throwing more strikes. He's good at not giving up walks, just needs to win the battles with batters quicker.

Yeah, but they started winning when they dropped the name "devil."

Gabe Kapler's managerial antics look like a fun subplot for this season.

Idk who this guy is, but hes been money for dodger news. Most notably he got the turner and jansen re-signings before anyone. Among other little moves. He knows someone

Thing is, kemp started tonight. Braun didnt
Brewers GM has a self imposed rule about not talking about rumors, but he broke code and called previous rumors from today from unknown guys an "early april fools joke" a little before this guys tweet

So idk just thought id share. And before anyone says it, I also dont see how this makes any sense for either team

One washed up guy for another. They're better off with the steroid free guy... Why would anyone want Braun?
