    The only ones I kind of disagree with are the NL East. I think NY and Toronto will be real close and the other gets the wild card. Cleveland falters and finishes 3rd in behind Chicago. I also think Boston will not finish in the cellar, I can see them at 3rd in the East.

    As much as it would seem to play out that way I just can't see a World Series repeat.

    Here's a question for you. Who's got the best OF in the league?



    Angels Dodgers Atlanta Toronto Washington Pittsburgh
    Left Trout Crawford Upton Cabrera Harper Marte
    Center Bourjos Kemp Upton Rasmus Span McCutchen
    Right Hamilton Ethier Heyward Bautista Werth Snider


    Pittsburgh hands down. But after that I'd probably go Dodgers, Atlanta, Angels

    that's not being a homer at all.

    If Trout plays to the level he did in his rookie year, it's the Angels easily. Followed by Atlanta, Washington, Los Angeles.

    Marte isn't that proven yet, Snider's potential has been waiting to come out for five years now.

    Lol, well obviously

    It's definitely a fun debate. Atlanta probably has the most well rounded and if Crawford plays like TB days it would be hard to say they weren't

    It's been forever since he's played like his potential.

    I'm watching Ken Burns baseball... I never knew ...or forgot that when Babe Ruth was a kid,...kids made fun of him calling him "nigger lips"


    I never knew that racist comment was that old ?

    Any more of Carlos Marmol this season, I will die of a simultaneous heart attack with liver failure.

    But the Cubs, like the Astros, are on pace for 162-0!

    Rockies have a 3-1 lead through 7 innings, blow it by giving up 3 runs to Milwaukee in the bottom of the 8th, tied it up with a 2 out homer in the top of the 9th, and lose 5-4 in 10 innings. Picking up right where they left off last season.

    Watching my Rangers and Yu is perfect through 7 innings with 12 SO's. Regardless if it ends up being a perfect game it's a great sign of things to come.
