Bartolo Colon has agreed to a deal with an unknown club reports Bob Nightengale of USA Today (on Twitter). The right-hander wouldn’t divulge the team because he has not yet passed his physical.

Pretty sure it’s either the All-Stars or the Champs.

Thank goodness. All of the matchups this year were so boring. There were seven or eight games this year where it seemed like one team never even got a hit! Ugh.

Aren't the MLB matchups basically the same every year except for a handful of interleague series?

Glad to see the season's starting sooner. I kinda wish every team played opening day. I like the idea, conceptually, of every fan getting to see their team play on opening day.

As a SABR Convention Note:
Dodgers are Home July 4-10, 4 vs NYM, 3 vs SD
The Angels are home June 27 to July 10, 3 vs Was, 3 vs LAD, 3 vs Det, 4 vs SEA.

and the Padres, well they aren't home until after the All-Star game on July 14.

See your hometown team play exciting matchups next year against teams like the Yankees! The Red Sox! And other miscellaneous teams.

Glad to see Opening Day involves a game in Cincinnati again.

Glad to see Opening Day involves a game in Cincinnati again.

A recent conversation:

Me: Baseball always used to start its season in Cincinnati.
Wife: Why?
Me: (RMc gives short dissertation on the Red Stockings)
Wife: Why did they change it?
Me: They passed a federal law saying that the first game must involve the Yankees. And the Red Sox. And it has to be on ESPN. And everybody who attends the game has to sign a waiver.
Wife: You're making that up!
Me: Swear to God.

Cubs to Fenway hasn't happened yet? Interleague play started rotating the divisions around 2001 (it was just East vs East etc for the first few years) so we should have had 3-4 cycles by now. Although the Cubs, in the 6 team division, get fewer interleague games than average. Is there any other team X at Y that hasn't happened yet?
