Quote of the day
"That feeling when it comes off the bat and you know it's gone, there's nothing like that in baseball." -- Twins 1B Justin Morneau, whose two-run, tiebreaking homer in the eighth inning lead the Twins to a 10-9 comeback win over the Angels

Daily blurb
Weather conditions could be problematic for several baseball locales today. While no game is a clear washout, St. Louis, Pittsburgh, & Los Angeles all show better than 50% chances of rain. If potential rainouts matter to you, remember to check the weather dashboard each day at DailyBaseballData.com

I forgot to mention yesterday that Henrik Stenson was the carryover favorite in GuruGolf, although he’s only on about 25% of active foursomes. Yesterday’s opening round scores were surprisingly high, with the presumptive cut line at +2. Last year, the cut was at -1, and two years ago it was even par. Apparently, blustery winds and cold temperatures were the primary culprits, although extremely fast greens were also cited by some golfers. Only 23 players broke par.
