Were there games the last couple of days?

I don't know, looking things over seems like they lost both, not surprising as the regulars on the other teams are going to play more and more.

Eveland and Rzep both pitched ok from what i see the last 2 days.

Apparently Overbay has been declared the starter for the beginning of the season, and that means Ruiz is mostly going to have to sit. I don't think I have a big problem with this to start the season. It's going to be a lot more beneficial in the long term if Bautista actually turns out to be a viable everyday MLB player somehow, and he's earned at least a month of the regular season to prove it's possible. if he sucks as bad as i think i will then move snider to right and lind to left and give ruiz a shot at dh, or mix it up any other way. ditto for olerud, give him as much chance as possible to make himself a tradeable commodity.

The problem is if Cito thinks that Bautista batting 260 with a 310OBP is ok at the end of April, Bautista will get to stay as the everyday leadoff man and banish Ruiz to the bench. Better hope Ryan Howard twists his ankle or something.
