Default Friday, April 6th - GOTD Atlanta v. New York

Early game is Boston and Texas just about to begin. Best matchup of the day goes to the Braves and Mets, both coming off opening series sweeps of, respectively, divisin rivals Philidelphia and NL champs St. Louis. I'm skeptical of the Braves' ability to keep pace through the season, coming off an '06 where they finished 18 games behind New York. With both teams sitting 3-0 at the top, now's as good a time as any to prove Atlanta can make the NL East interesting.

Red Sox at Rangers
Mariners at Indians
Diamondbacks at Nationals
Orioles at Yankees
Phillies at Marlins
Pirates at Reds
Blue Jays at Devil Rays
Mets at Braves
Cubs at Brewers
Cardinals at Astros
Tigers at Royals
Rockies at Padres
Athletics at Angels
Dodgers at Giants

On the GOTD
The Mets v Braves matchup is quite similar to the early one this week between Oakland and Seattle. Both of those series could help shape the division later in the season. The Braves revamped bullpen gets tested with a hardhitting lineup, and both rotations will get to continue to show if they are 1+4 types or truly dominating.

I just woke up and have not looked at any of the scores. The Phillies finally get off the losing column and win against the Fish.
