Wow.. I think 1-3 is a possibility and would probably be my best guess. I think 3-1 would make us legit state contenders. I don't see any path to 4-0. But I totally agree that Fayetteville will probably be the toughest of that group. But 1-3 wouldn't drag me down. I'm not worried about any pre-district record or state rankings.

I doubt it. They endured it last year & looks like they will again. Bagwell was evidently BIG in bringing him here and now I'm reading where he is "pesonally working with him" on his hitting. Good Lord. Bagwell was a shell of himself the last 3 years he played and Abreu is a carbon copy. Great career for both but once you go over the cliff you can't reverse gravity. ANYBODY at 1st should be able to top batting .078. But Crane & Bagwell are besties so we get to watch the results.

I only scratched the surface in my worry about the SP this year. Atrocious is the only word that comes to mind. We keep hearing Verlander and Framber will be back soon. JV wasn't that good last year and Framber is hit and miss. This is a loaded team MINUS starting and middle relievers. How can you not panic.........and I know how early it is. We are NOT going to win this division and I'm putting this in writing as of 4/12/2024. But it was one heck of a run

Exactly !! If he comes up and hits .200 that is over double the production we can expect from Abreau or Singleton.

He definitely did not look like he belonged at the Major League level. That was as bad a debut as I've seen in a long time.

And i hope fans don't start riding Espada. He can't perform for the players. At least I can't really question his starters. He is pretty much stuck with his 1st baseman situation.

Everybody was afraid of the middle pitching. But I don't think anybody expected it to be this bad. The hitting will eventually come around (not including Abreu in this prediction). Despite it being very early I don't have much hope for the SP or the middle relievers...........even the 3 closers have been shaky. You can't win without pitching. The $ spent on Abreu and Monterro is going to haunt us for years. But hey.......it ain't over and regardless you don't get rides like we have had more than once in a lifetime.

Talk to us after you have been to 7 consecutive divisional finals. But the Rangers remind me of the 2016-17 Astros. They just look more talented than the league right now. We will see how long it lasts. Not going to argue they look to be the cream of the division

It was a shrewd move that average fans can't comprehend

I can't complain about Maldonado taking up a wasted roster spot this year so thus far my sights are set on Jon Singleton. I can't come up with a single reason why he made the roster.

UH was done when Shead went down. Actually surprised they kept it as close as they did

walks walks walks. And a wasted PH bat by Singleton. Will never understand their fascination with him

oops

It would make sense provided the schedule worked out with AHS or if played on a Thurs or Sat. No way the game could be played at PG Stadium. There just isn't any room for 1/3rd of the fans.
