THE JUNKYARD DOGS WEBTOPIA…

• Kyle Farnsworth has an elbow strain, and “he is confident he will be back to pitch this season”…That sounds like we won’t see Farnsville until at least the second half. [TampaBay.com]
• Sean Rodriguez will get the majority of starts at shortstop, but as expected, Joe Maddon will continue to play match-ups, with both Reid Brignac and Elliot Johnson getting starts. [TBO.com]
• If you missed it last night, here’s the opening day roster, at least until Kyle Farnsworth goes on the DL. We’ll have more on this shortly. [Rays Index]
• Last night was Opening Night for the Marlins new stadium, and it was a train wreck. [BI Sports]
• Did Bud Selig say something optimistic about the Rays’ stadium situation? [Shadow of the Stadium]
• With the new Wild Card system, the Rays will only need 89 or 90 wins to get into the playoffs in a typical year. [BI Sports]
• Saturday’s game is nearly a sellout. [TampaBay.com]
• Only baseball could screw up something as simple as Opening Day. [BI Sports]
• Who do the Bucs take if both Claiborne and Richardson are gone? [JoeBucsFan]
