Editor\u2019s note: We had some overnight internet issues, so we\u2019re doing the shorter weekend format today. Thanks for understanding!<\/p>\n
Major League Baseball\u2019s Opening Day weekend series have all come to an end, and the Yankees were one of just five teams to kick off the season with a sweep, joining the Blue Jays (sure), Dodgers (no duh), Brewers (yup), and \u2026 the Marlins (yes, they played the Rockies but still: weird!). The Mariners had to settle for a four-game home split with the Guardians, but the defending AL West champions are a very good ballclub and offer an excellent early-season road challenge for the Yanks. It begins late tonight with Ryan Weathers in his Yankees debut.<\/p>\n

Questions\/Prompts:<\/p>\n
1. Jake asked a similar question yesterday, but for today, how about a straight pitching line prediction for Ryan Weathers?<\/p>\n
2. Bask in the ridiculous Duke\/UConn ending below and discuss. That shot by Braylon Mullins is one of the best I\u2019ve ever seen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Editor\u2019s note: We had some overnight internet issues, so we\u2019re doing the shorter weekend format today.
