Opening Week Leaves Questions


Opening week has come and gone and as the dust settles from the fresh fields, baseball has left us with some questions to ponder. Without hesitation the Cardinals have jumped right back into their potent offense mode, even under the new reign of Mike Matheny. The only question the Cardinals are left asking is Albert Whojols?

Speaking of, the debut in his new Angels gear was a little lack luster, with only one RBI in his first three games its clear Albert may be forcing the issue a little bit trying to earn the respect back, which he lost when leaving St. Louis.  After recording his first hit with the Angels he was soon thrown out at home plate. He isn’t the only one struggling to make it to home plate though.

The New York Yankees have scored just 12 runs in their first three games. Only one run more than the west coast favored Angels. Yanks have not won a game yet and unless they get their offense motivated, they’ll be chalking April up to the experimental column.

Questions for your homework are as follows: How long will it take the Cubs to get on the right track with their new system? How long will Detroit stay at the top? And last but not least, are the Angels a contender?
