As expected, the injuries hurt to start the year, and Ruth is off to a putrid start minus a huge game-winning three-run shot to seal one of our wins. Starting 2-6 is obviously never good, but with the injuries, it could be worse. Blyleven has also been as good as advertised, and Opening Day was just not Glavine's day so I have reason to be optimistic. Our defense is absolutely horrific though.
I made a trade after seeing how Darnell Coles was playing at SS as an error machine... I traded Jake Arrieta, Mike Griffin, and Pedro Alvarez to the Bronchos while they were in town to get SS Joe Rogan. Rogan has been better than Coles defensively, but horrible with the bat.
Hopefully things will turn around as the weather gets warmer!
