Open Thread, 4/27: Sea Level vs Mile High

And so we move into another series after losing two serieses in a row. Jake Peavy has not yet started the season and Chris Young has been acting as the ace so far.

Jason Hammel goes for the Rockies. Hammel has not started a game in a year. Here's my gameplan... Take some pitches. Do what it takes to get to the bullpen early. See the ball. Hit the ball. Easy peasy.

Here's a question. What is going on with CY's right arm in that photo above? Is that a tribble?

As far as the season goes, I think we're still in it...
