No.

James Shields started today.

Roger Cormier

7:08

That is the correct answer

7:09

James Shields will get the W today

Sheryl Ring

7:09

Kill the win. NOW.

Roger Cormier

7:09

Certainly stop flying it

Sheryl Ring

7:10

If I were forced to start one of Urena, Blach, and Shields, I'd actually start Blach. Then I'd probably wonder what bizarre universe forced me to make such a depressing choice.

Not Finnigan

7:10

I’ll never forget Drew Hutchison starting on opening day for Toronto in 2015 and starting opening day for AAA Buffalo in 2016

Sheryl Ring

7:10

I always thought Hutchison would be good one day. :(

Roger Cormier

7:11

Bartolo Colon was the OD starter for the 2015 Mets. Buddy Carlyle got the save.

Bernie Brewer

7:12

1915 Mets you mean?

Roger Cormier

7:12

No Bernard, I did not

rkn

7:12

Yesss the dulcet tones of A-Rod

Roger Cormier

7:13

dul·cet
ˈdəlsət/Submit
adjective
(especially of sound) sweet and soothing (often used ironically).

Sheryl Ring

7:13

Brad Hand's breaking ball is a thing of beauty

Roger Cormier

7:15

Are the Royals allowed to watch it?

Eric A Longenhagen

7:15

Things are getting wacky in Philly. Braves have climbed within 1, have runner on third (Bourjos) Bot 8 with one out.

7:16

game-tying single for Preston Tucker

Roger Cormier

7:16

so pulling Nola after 68 pitches was...bad?

Ian Gunn

7:17

Are the jays destined for mediocrity?

Roger Cormier

7:17

Only if they believe it to be true

7:18

And if Donaldson's shoulder doesn't improve

The only guy from ND

7:18

The best part of opening day is that no game is truly meaningless, right? Projections haven't yet borne out (or failed to borne out).

Roger Cormier

7:19

that's up there. top 3 reason

i like the bunting. obviously the decoration not the baseball play.

Kiermaier's Piercing Green Eyes

7:19

Where are we on silent MLB.TV commercial breaks vs old game highlights? Team silence reporting in.

Nate

7:20

The Dodgers, who are probably the reason we have a mound limit rule, are keeping track of them on the scoreboard...

Roger Cormier

7:20

Definitely Team Silence. They replay the same few old game highlights all dang year long

Sheryl Ring

7:20

I can't wait to see what happens with the first seventh mound visit

Roger Cormier

7:20

They have them on every scoreboard, I believe

spongebob baseball meme

7:21

what's the most opening day extra inning games? 2 so far with two more fast approaching.

Roger Cormier

7:21

And one ongoing in San Diego

Moltar

7:22

I'm team generic music. The same 3 ads or highlights gets real old real quick but the dead-silence to game action is jarring so...

Roger Cormier

7:22

the truth is in the silence

7:22

Is it me or have the umpires (across a few of the games today) been calling the up and in pitch a strike more liberally today?

Cubbieschig

7:22

Not just you

7:23

Ohtani all 4 PA grounders to the right side

Jkim

7:23

Totally overreacting but Ty Blach looks like prime Cliff Lee so far.

Roger Cormier

7:23

Has Cliff Lee ever walked Yasiel Puig?

Sheryl Ring

7:23

Has Cliff Lee ever walked anyone>
