Think it was nice to have a lot of relievers get off to a good start and get some season-debut nerves out of the way.

I expected CJ in the 9th.  A pseudo save situation.

Wilson looked good, especially his command.  I think he can be an outstanding asset to this team.

At this rate, Lester will need a lot of starts to make 200 innings!

How was Lester's velocity?

Especially if he is treated like the fifth starter.

Upper 80's mostly.

I was unable to watch most of the game today. I'm curious what was involved in Schwarber's error.

The bullpen was obviously as impressive as Lester wasn't.  The predictions that Lester is likely to end up being the #4 (or maybe #5) member of the rotation were not diminished today.

I was impressed that Happ had yet another leadoff HR.  Not so much by his three strikeouts though. I really hope he's not going to be an all or nothing guy.

Lester is a big worry, really.  He and the bullpen are my two biggest.  We have enough if we stay healthy for the rotation to be OK if Lester is now a 5th starter, but that's a big dropoff if it happens.

Still - a win's a win.

Lester's defense killed him.

He wasnt horrible.

He wasnt good either.
