Opening Day 2017 Discussion

We already have a controversial Replay Review decision in the top of the 1st inning of the Yankees-Rays game, so there's plenty to talk about—and we're less than an hour into the 2017 season.

We will have replays and analysis of this and any other close plays that might occur during this first day of the regular season, as well as plate umpire performance, including ball-and-strike accuracy figures.

Discuss these & other Opening Day (Sunday & Monday) topics of interest in this Opening Day Discussion!
