Opening Day

Well the Cardinals opened their season today much as they ended 2008: by blowing a save. A 4-2 lead in the 9th inning wound up a 6-4 loss as new closer Jason Motte failed to hold the lead. Last year the Cards led the league in blown saves. I hope this is not an omen of things to come...

Mark my words, the Pirates WILL win the Central this year.

We'll see who's the smart ass when they rip the Cubs a new one as well. Pittsburgh Pirates World Series Champions 2009. I'm calling it now (my other predictions are so shitty, why not throw something against the wall in case it sticks).
