The two hottest bats in their lineup are Ryan Spilborghs and Troy Tulowitzki.
Today, I watched them score runs using more than just the long ball. This is going to be important later in the season when the long ball dries up as it does for most teams. They scored using sac bunts, directional hitting, and hits into the gap, hanging 10 runs on a defending WS champion that looked like their usual cold April selves.

are managing to win games. Their starters, which were called into question have all had good outings. Their starter that was supposed to be rock solid has had the only bad outing of their rotation.The two hottest bats in their lineup are Ryan Spilborghs and Troy Tulowitzki.

(It's four games. And teams hit more homers as the weather gets warmer, not less.)

In other news, the Orioles take two of three from the Yankees and are leading Tampa 5-1 tonight. World Series baby!

The Rockies are averaging 7.5 runs scored per game and are only giving up 3.5 runs per game. Only 4 games, but that's a hug edifferential from a team that is usually ice cold in April.

The Nationals are only projected to go 158-4 at this point.
