Vs.
The game-threads this year will be pretty simple. They will consist of basically just the pitching matchup and BRef's preview, which gives detailed breakdowns of... well, everything: individual hitter/pitcher matchups (Cano hits Beckett very well, Gardner doesn't), team matchups (CC is 3-2 with a 2.04 ERA vs. Boston in his last five games), recent trends (w/l streaks, last 10 games between the teams, etc.), and more.
Quite frankly, I'm not expecting a great game from Sabathia. He just doesn't 'find his game' until May.
(Don't forget to use the 'rec' feature for your favorite comments.)
The 2010 title defense begins now! (Well okay, in 35 minutes.)
