Rodriguez is pretty good. It's the rest you should be worried about. What about Oakland and Seattle? Yikes...

The Opening Day starters for Oakland and Seattle were Brandon McCarthy and Felix Hernandez respectively. The pitchers you have listed for them are the two pitchers involved in the decision.

Just wondering, why is this a clickable quiz as opposed to a normal one?

I have found that the clickable quizzes a more popular and tome more fun. So it just would I think is most enjoyable.

I thought Jeremy Guthrie was still an Oriole. Otherwise I ran the table.

I still can't believe Jake Arrieta is our opening day starter. It's going to be a long year.

Thumbs up if you thought Guthrie was on the Orioles!

you could make this more interesting by adding the #2 starter for each team. For example, I didn't know Hanson is the ace, but I knew he is a Brave

I agree with Metzrule...you don't need to have any idea who the opening day starters are to do this quiz, all you need to know is what teams the pitchers are on. If you want to leave it in this format, then you should add the word matchup to the quiz title, since all we're really doing is matching pitchers to teams.

I find the clickable quizzes less enjoyable for the most part because of quizzes like this where you don't actually need to know the answer just enough to figure it out. This would be a much harder and better quiz under the standard format. I ran the table simply because I knew who everyone pitched for, but for some of the teams if I didn't have the name on a list I wouldn't have figured out who their opening day starter was.

Be so much easier if the names were in alphabetical order using last name not first name

I think this is an example of a quiz where the classic Sporcle format is better than this new one.

I can't help but feel sorry for the Orioles and Rockies pitching staffs when their aces are Arrieta (don't really know who he is) and Guthrie (used to be on the O's but moved to the Rockies).

I have been a die hard Twins fan ever since along time ago, and I saw Arrieta pitch for the O's against us...and his stuff was gooood. He is a for sure on the rise as a young pitcher.

Need more time added to this quiz. Too much of it was wasted just trying to physically find the answers.
