Good Friday...

Indeed It is good Friday today, and I couldn't be any happier that. My life was spared by Jesus over two-thousand years ago today, but today is also Opening day for the Kansas City Royals and The Los Angeles Angels. Yes, this is the Debute of Pujols in L.A. and the first Opening day start For Bruce Chen in his Career. First baseman Albert Pujols is Just 3-8, with two home runs and a double, against the veteran Kansas City left-hander Bruce Chen, not to mention the other Angels players who have fared well against the Lefty like Howie Kendrick who has gone 3-7, with two homers; then you have Bobby Abreu who is hitting .409 at the moment, he has gone 9 for 22 thus far in the spring; up next left fielder Vernon Wells who is 6-19, with three homers, and then Shortstop Erick Aybar who is 3 for 6


On The Angles side you have pitcher Jared Weaver, who will face the hot hitting Royals tonight Betancourt, Gordon, Butler, and Gets are the only royals on the current roster to have faced Weaver. They are all hitting above .200 against weaver and have combined for 84 plate appearances and connected on 22 of them. which leaves hope for Hosmer, Moustakas, Cain, and Bourgeois who have yet to hit against Weaver. Well Hosmer, Mous, and Cain will all get their shots at him for the first time today.
