REAL Baseball starts on Tuesday!
Can't wait for the real season to start. I have a feeling this will be one of my best ever.
Who else can't wait until Tuesday!?!?

Dice-K's probably going to stand "extra tall" in his native land. The Japanese culture is all about honor and pride. I don't see Dice-K losing to Oakland on his home turf. If anybody blows that game for Boston, it'll be the bullpen.

The public will be on Boston in this one.
Not sure I'd play such a big favorite this early in the season. Actually I'm pretty sure I won't. Maybe Oakland +1.5.
I will see tomorrow.

Under 9.5.
Boston's offense not nearly as effective away from Fenway. Blanton has solid numbers against the BoSox in 5 career starts (2-1, 3.58, 1.35, .260), although Manny and Ortiz have both hit him well. You never know what to expect from Daisuke, but you'd struggle to find a weaker offense than OAK's in the AL.
Does anyone know the ballpark dimensions for the Tokyo Dome?
