Jake the Fake a Mistake

The Padres have announced that Jake Peavy will be their opening day starter April 3 at San Francisco, a clear message to their fans that the team has no interest in opening the season with a win.
Yeah, this makes a lot of sense. We can't think of too many other teams out there who are using their fourth-best starter on opening day.
Baseball historians will have to dig long and hard to find another example of a defending division champion opening the season with a pitcher who was 11-14 the previous year.
