From Last Night:

• Three games were washed out due to inclement weather
• AJ Burnett flirts with a no-hitter enroute to a 5-0 win over the Cardinals at PNC
• Bryce Harper delivers four hits as the Nationals roll the Fish
• Wade Davis leads the Royals to a 1-0 win over the Braves, who lost for the first time in 11 tries

What I’m Watching Today:

• Matt Cain faces recent criminal Gallardo at Miller Park (1p Eastern)
• Jon Lester looks to stay hot in Cleveland (7p Eastern)
• Wainwright tries to keeps his walk-less streak going against Hamels and the Phillies (7p Eastern)
• Fernandez and Cingrani match up at GABP in a prospect-off (7p Eastern)

The Big Question:

• Did Kershaw actually give up homeruns to Everth Cabrera and Chris Denorfia or did I make that up?

AJ Burnett probably had the most interesting night for anyone that didn’t play in the Tigers game (see How Was The Game?) by nearly no-hitting a very good Cardinals lineup. It’s often easy to dismiss Burnett as some sort of headcase due to certain struggles he’s had over the years, but his stuff is really good and he’s had a pretty sneaky good career that is starting to really come full circle in the NL. Harper continues to look great in the early goings with another big game, but the power hitter I have my eye on is Giancarlo Stanton who should be back from his recent injury tomorrow.
