Thoughts on opening day:
The team hit four homers. In 16 games last season, the team hit a grand total of two!
Production came up and down the lineup. I expect that will continue all season long, not just from the nine who played yesterday, but from a deep and talented bench that includes Drew Bowser, Henry Gargus, Tommy Troy, Grant Burton, Eddie Park, Vincent Martinez and Austin Kretzschmar.
Pitching is perilously thin. It's going to be a struggle until Williams and Palisch come back. Thank goodness that Beck is a warrior and Grech has a rubber arm.
Yes Crampton made two errors at short yesterday and he made six in 43 chances last season (not good). But he is a very capable defender; just needs to get out of his own head.
