Tonight begins another round of the always exciting inter-league play. The Mats are facing off against the Los Angeles Angels of Anehiem, California. Maybe not the most exciting matchup, but I guess it’ll at least be cool to watch players who I never get to watch. I always like Torii Hunter. I think a lot […]

Well, I can tell already that this is going to be a very rough season to endure. I guess on the bright side Reyes is back and Johan is pitching tomorrow. The Mets went 1-3 since the last time he pitched, which is 1 win more than I expected, so I guess that’s good, right? […]
