    should be an interesting year for the nl east. the braves and phils should be battling all season. love it. wouldnt be surprised if both teams nake it to the post season.

    at least we can agree that the mets are going to suck it even harder than usual this season. don't be suprised to see them sitting behind the nats.

    Yeah. I hate the Mets..as with most sport teams from New York. Braves off to a good start. Lowe pitching out of a jam in the first. Back-To-Back opening day first at bat homers for Heyward. Going into the third, Braves up 2-0 with top of the lineup coming to bat.

    I am going to at least a game. Atlanta is 6 hours from here, so its not just a short drive for me. Though, its still not bad. Gonna try to make it to a game hopefully in June or July.

    Lol. Well, it probably won't be 6 hours. I've honestly not driven it, myself. I've rode every time, and really didn't pay attention to the time.

    Prado, Uggla - amazing. Beachy, Kimbrel .. young pitchers getting the job done. I really like the bullpen so far, even though we're four games in. As long as the rotation stays healthy, and the bats get the job done, then I am really liking what we've got. :] Let's take the rest over Milwaukee and saddle up for Philly this weekend at home.
