1:05 PM - Giants @ Angels - Jonathan Sanchez V. Nick ADENHART
No Barroid in tow. King Ade-Rock makes a bid to be a member of the major league rotation. He lines up with the #5 slot and home opener. Him or Holy Moseley.
Pregame-Gasm Guesses
1. Yes or No: Will the Angels score First?
2. Which Angel will be the first to reach 1st Base?
3. Yes or No: will any Angel have at least 5 At-Bats in the game?

Here's the Baseball Crank's
breakdown of the four teams in the American League West . . .
The Angels are not a superpower like the Yankees and Red Sox of recent years, but they are a team with an embarrassment of riches in terms of depth, and they stand astride the AL West in a forbidding pose. An awful lot needs to go right for the Mariners, their only real competition, to dethrone the Angels . . . .

whatever
probably wasn't the best idea on Speier's part, and i would've been upset too.
but it's really not a huge deal.

Unless I were in the perfect mood, I'd be upset too.
Anyway, I'm sure Speier didn't mean any harm by it. He was just being a pest.

Pitching probables today
After Adenhart is Jason Bulger, Rich Thompson and Darren O’Day.
Their performance today could be an indicator of who will be joining the bullpen staff.

Big arm good in the minors, not so good in the Majors to date as a starter/reliever.

thats been the talk.
the 5th starter is going to go on the home opener
by howiestheman on Mar 20, 2008 2:41 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
WTY will get opening day. AdRock needs to make the rotation. My guess in 4th starter.
by SoCalWine on Mar 20, 2008 2:42 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
Opening day...
At home we are talking about.

Sorry WTY, opening day in Minnesota
Black Magic will get start at home opener
by SoCalWine on Mar 20, 2008 2:48 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
Santana is the number 4 starter
i believe Mike's said something to that effect.
i'm pretty sure the 5 starter is getting the home opener
by howiestheman on Mar 20, 2008 2:49 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
Probably Moseley, I would venture to guess...
but could be Adenhart, if Sciosc chooses to keep DMose in the 'pen.

I know what Mike has said. I still think they will shift Santana to get the home starts.

he might not
just to make a point.
he still thinks that Black Magic is the greatest pitcher in our rotation, and that his home/road spilts are a fluke :/
by howiestheman on Mar 20, 2008 2:56 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
Observant HOWIESTHEMAN.
Outside the box..........Consider MAGIC SANTANA as the opening day starter in Minnesota!
by wumbug on Mar 20, 2008 7:57 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
i would guess Moseley as well
but i can hope.

Didn't AdRock go 4IP with no runs in last start?

Matthews has a bruised butt.
"Matthews had what was described as a "bruised left gluteus" after making contact with the hard dirt at home plate with a swipe of the plate while he was scoring from first on Guerrero's double into the left-field corner in the first inning."
