Quote of the day
"It was kind of like flying an airplane. Even if you haven't flown for a while, you can still get it off the ground and land it." -- Davey Johnson, after his first game as manager of the Washington Nationals

Daily blurb
It wasn’t that long ago that there seemed to be a couple of 1-0 MLB games every day. The tide may be shifting. While we still had two shutouts yesterday, those scores were 5-0 and 15-0. If you were playing in daily contests yesterday, you couldn’t have gone too wrong by loading up on Dodgers.

The other early trend that has shifted dramatically is rainouts. Through the end of May, there were 32 postponed games. So far in June, there have been only two. Today’s weather outlook puts a handful of games in the iffy category, although it’s certainly plausible that all games will be played today as well. If you’re playing in daily contests, don’t get lulled into a false sense of security, however. Be vigilant!
