Welcome back! We made it past the off season. Now, that doesn't guarantee nothing but action, but that's what we're here for, right? Today both the English Premier and French leagues kick off and we can't be more hyped up. You know what that match-day 1 feeling is like, TV looks extra bright, colors vibrant and the beer tastes fantastic. Don't let all these things fool you into betting the house the first game; it;s a marathon. See you at the finish line!
Good luck, this weekend is about to go down!

Justin Verlander is set to make his second minor league rehab start this week and could rejoin the Houston Astros' rotation after that.
The 41-year-old right-hander took his first step toward returning to the Astros by pitching three innings for Triple-A Sugar Land on Saturday night. The three-time Cy Young Award winner is coming back from neck stiffness that’s sidelined him for two months.
“He bounced back well,” Houston manager Joe Espada said before Monday night's game at Tampa Bay. “He feels well. He feels good.”
Verlander hasn’t pitched in the majors since June 9. He also missed the beginning of the season with right shoulder inflammation before going 3-2 with a 3.95 ERA in 10 starts. He made his season debut April 19.
Kyle Tucker has a ways to go
In other injury-related news, Houston outfielder Kyle Tucker took flyballs off a fungo for the first time since fouling a ball off his right shin June 3 against St. Louis. He ran short sprints, went through agility drills and hit in an indoor batting cage.
You can watch some of Tucker's drills below. Many people in the comment section didn't feel like he was moving around very well and are concerned that he won't be back anytime soon. You can judge for yourself. Espada seemed happy with what he saw.

“I'm very pleased,” Espada said. “I think he's turning the corner. Now, we've got to improve from what we saw today. We've got to see more of that. He's tolerating the pain better. He's able to move around and he's recovering much better, which is huge.”
