Week 1: First Friday Roundup

We'd love to blame this little scamp for Trevor Bauer's late-game implosion, but Bauer had hit the showers by then.

STUDS

• Corey Seager (TIN) went 3 for 5 with a double, 3 runs, an RBI and a walk. 
• Eric Hosmer (JVC) went 3 for 3 with a homer, 3 RBIs and 2 runs.
• Trevor Bauer (PM) took a no-hitter into the seventh inning at Coors Field, but then Coors reared its ugly head. Bauer ended up striking out 10 and allowing 4 runs in a 6.1-inning win. 
• Will Smith (M) — the catcher one, not the pitcher one or the big metal spider one — went 3 for 4 with 2 doubles, 2 RBIs and 2 runs. 

DUDS

• Fernando Tatis Jr. (SCC) went 0 for 3 with 2 Ks and 2 errors. Oof. He also was caught stealing. Double oof. He's on pace for 243 errors this season, which would be a record for non-Pedro Alvarezes.
  

Week 1: First Thursday Roundup - Opening Day!

I don't know if I'll be putting on this headset again.

Welcome back to another season of Studs, Duds, and making fun of the Mets and other baseball atrocities.

STUDS 

• Eric Hosmer (JVC) was the first triple-shy-of-a-cycle guy of the year, driving in 3 runs. We're gonna call them #tripleshy from here on out to save all the typing. 
• Nick Castellanos (JVC) was #tripleshy, scoring twice and driving in 2. I guess technically he was before Hosmer, whatever. We assume the homer was a deep drive to left. 
• Paul Goldschmidt (LCL) had 2 doubles, two singles, an RBI and 3 runs scored. 
• Jake Cronenworth (LCL) singled, tripled, scored 3 runs and drove in 2. 
• Josh Hader (SCC) vultured a win with a 3-strikeout inning. 
• Ketel Marte (CB) was #tripleshy, adding a second single and scoring twice.

DUDS

• Freddie Freeman (TIN) lived up to his first-round billing with an opening-day error. 
• Luis Castillo (BOPP) blew up, in the bad way, allowing 8 earned and striking out no one in a 3.1-inning loss.

HEALTH DUDS 

• The Nats brought their specific brand of dysfunction to Opening Day, managing to outdo the Mets in a battle of laughable ineptness by having enough COVID issues to postpone Thursday's game. The teams won't play until Saturday at the earliest. 

Ah, that opening day weather we all look forward to.

Opening Day Is Nearly Here

We don't know who any of the guys on the right side are.

Opening day is tomorrow! 

Make sure your lineups are set for the start of the 2021 FBLG season.

Remember: all roster additions made before the season's first pitch are free. You'll then have 40 moves for the rest of the season. Lineup swaps don't count as moves.

Baseball is here!
