Interesting comparison after Day One of two players traded for each in one of the most controversial trades in recent memory. Miami Marlins shortstop Adeiny Hechavarria 3-4, Blue Jays shortstop Jose Reyes 0-1, 15 Disabled List.
Only reason to smile on opening day if you are a Blue Jay fan, now Cub Emilio Bonifacio went 4-5 with a double and a stolen base and an outfield assist BUT was picked off at first base during the top of the 10th inning. Classic Emilio!
The Phillies and Rangers combined for 24 runs in their season opener. The game featured a player who had a great summer that amidst all the offence went 0-4 in Shin-Soo Choo. The game also featured a player who had arguably the rockiest of off-seasons smash a Grand Slam in the 2nd inning in Jimmy Rollins.
Detroit Tigers shortstop Alex Gonzalez 2-4. Free Agent Stephen Drew...well...suppose it's better making no money than it is playing for "under market value".
Cincinnati Red fans hope that rookie Billy Hamilton learned a valuable lesson in today's opener. You can't steal first base! Hamilton struck out all four of his at-bats.
Pablo Sandoval started his "contract year" with a strikeout and a fielding error, he's doing it wrong!
