Solid victory last night. I went to Opening Day and did a generous boo to ownership and management. Everyone looked at me like I was crazy. BFIB actually think they are trying!

A team that 'is trying to win' is playing Victor Scott at the big league level. I feel like that's really all that needs to be said.
Myles Straw got waived. He's no impact player but he's an elite defensive CFer who can hit .250 from the 9 hole and not embarrass himself. Victor Scott, OTOH, is a guy who got drafted in the middle rounds 2 seasons ago and who's never played above AA (and had fewer than 300 ABs in AA at that). They had no business at all bringing him north. They're just cheap and out of ideas. |

Yeah - the stadium yesterday looked at least half empty for the debut of Gray against Wheeler. That should've been a hell of a draw. It wasn't.
The reason people look at you odd in the stadium is because the people in the stadium are the only BFIB sheep left. And there's only about 25,000 of them any given night. The rest are staying home. The Marmol extension took a lot of starch out of this fanbase. They see that the entire organization is on auto-pilot. |

Announced attendance -- 31,972.
If there are 22,000 people in that ballpark I'd be floored. Gotta love the denial from these guys. |

Meanwhile TON has a 1.394 OPS with 6 dingers in 10 games. We have pissed away a ton of talent in the last 10 years.
