Here is the first week's stats from Baseball Prospectus.  The Gunslingers have a .917 OPS for, and an .818 OPS against.  They are both pretty high, and I'm hoping that the spread increases as the year wears on.  I don't like the fact that I'm being out-homered.  That should never happen.

Miggy Cabrera, Adrian Gonzalez, Kosuke Fukudome, Russell Martin, Carlos Quentin, and Chris Snyder are off to rip-roaring starts.  Aaron Hill has a bad hammy, but Snyder is benefiting from the loss of Miguel Montero to a ruptured meniscus.  Hunter Pence went 0 for his first 12 before homering.  The Astros are just awful this year.

Among the starting pitchers, Mark Buehrle,  Kevin Millwood (despite the four homers allowed), Kenshin Kawakami, and Brian Matusz all started strong.  The bullpen has been a complete disaster, though, with several pitchers yielding multiple runs in their outings.  Looks like I'll have to clean house and start over again next year, as usual.  

In the Minors, Alex White had a terrific pro debut for Kinston (high A), going five innings without allowing a run and striking out seven.  Justin Smoak has a couple of early homers, and Grant Green is tearing up the California League with an 1.111 OPS.  Mike Trout was 1 for his first 13 and then 3 for his last 6 (all singles) after a huge spring.  Martin Perez has yet to make his first start with Frisco (AA).
