Opening Day is upon us! Dbacks vs. Rockies series thread

[coyoteshockeyfan]

Can you believe it? Opening Day is already here as your 2007 Arizona Diamondbacks will travel tomorrow to face off against the Colorado Rockies tomorrow at 1pm with the game televised on 3TV. Reigning Cy Young winner Brandon Webb will be opposed by Aaron Cook. Hernandez will face Francis on Tuesday and Davis will conclude the series against Rodrigo Lopez.

Opening Day roster is here. Owings will not be added to the roster until he starts against Washington, so until then both Durbin and Nippert are on the team.

Awesome - looking forward to the season!!

 

[Gee!]

And thank God them awful uniforms are gone..

Purple should only be used in basketball, no other sport..

My boy and I are going to try to watch every televised game this season. We can do it because we're lazy!

A big yes to that. I really like the red. Also, no more Thom announcing games.

I wish I could do that but work gets in the way. I would love to watch today's game.

I can't wait for our opener later today. I'm looking forward to watching up to 6 games at once on mlb.tv

 

[devilfan02]

YES!!!! Go Dbacks! This team is gonna be great to watch

 

[FArting]

Time to win the NL West

At first I didn't like Thom leaving, but after I watched a few Sutton games, I like this new guy. He brings some life to the broadcasting booth.

 

[Folster]

Drew with a hit to start the season.

Those unis look sharp.

 

[Phxchris1989]

I love Byrnes' hustle. I do like those unis!

Edit: Good news:1-0 Arizona! Bad News: Hudson got hurt. I think I might try the chat thing a bit later from now when more people are there.

Webb looking like ass. 2 batters. 2 walks.

ahh, but then he gets a K. whew.

 

[Linderbee]

bases loaded w/one out??? 3 walks?? WTF?

 

[Phxchris1989]

Yeah, this is a very un-Webb like preformance. But then again it's opening day.

 

[Diamondback Jay]

Brandon's looking very shaky today.

I'm not going to get my ass in the air over an Opening Day performance, however thus far, it's been shaky.

 

[Phxchris1989]

...damnit, I hate the Rockies.

 

[Linderbee]

 

[Phxchris1989]

Wow, 37 pitches in the first inning...not good. I still am not going to worry too much, our offence looked solid and it's still opening day. I'm sure he's got to be nervous out there.

For the record, I'm not freaking out or anything, I just want to do good EVERY game..I'm sure he's just fine. Not worried...just don't like to see so many pitches right off the bat (get it? Right off the bat )

 

[Phxchris1989]

I know me too, I want so bad for us to be better than last year.
