Huge matchup with the Full Flanal for the Poppers

The Poppers have the biggest matchup of the early season as they take on the only other 3-0 team in the league in the Full Flanal.

It's starting off quick for both teams in the first day. Both teams are hitting big and barely scraping by with their pitching.

The Big Unit is back and put up a sorry ass performance in game 1: 5.0 IP, 6 ER, 2.00 WHIP. At least he got me 3 K-BB.

Meanwhile, Kelly Johnson is looking like a nice keeper for next season. He's hitting like .500 over the last 10 days or so and already has 5 HRs on the season. Between him, Matt Holliday and Hanley Ramirez the Poppers are rollin!


And now a moment of silence for Mark Prior......


...BTW, who didn't see that coming?

And how does Jimmy Rollins have 8 HRs and Ryan Howard has 3 HRs?

My pitching is killing me...

...yet somehow I'm still leading Todd's Heaters 7.0 - 5.0 on the week.

Zambrano pitched so bad last night that sweet Lou Pinella blew a gasket in the post game interview (link). And Brandon Webb was doing his best Zambrano impression last night. At least he pitched 7 innings. My overall K-BB is -3!

You'd think with an ERA of 5.90 and a WHIP of 1.69 for the week there's no way I could win a single pitching category. Yet I'm still in it because Todd has a 5.66 ERA and 1.47 WHIP! Sad times people...
