It is that time again.

Even # year, so..........

Probably going to need a bigger display case come November

Bay Bridge series with the A's this weekend, then Play Ball!

Predictions for your team ?

 

[tiger roach]

No predictions, but I hope the Astros can build on last year. Can't wait for baseball!

I think Samardzja is going to turn out to be a great acquisition. I like the cut of his Jib....looks good so far and he's keeping the mullet tradion alive and well which is always a bonus in baseball

My season will go something like this:

 

[DFB]

The Rockies will be out of contention in about a month.
Great ballpark. Nice day out on Blake St too.

 

[mongooz]

we'll see if the Tigers can get all the way to august in good shape and then fall down a well.

 

[Chad]

Go Nats!

Mets will contend this year. They'll at least have a winning record.

 

[smurfco]

The Braves should be interesting. Not good, but interesting.

 

[xStonr]

There are no expectations with the Phillies this year. It will just be interesting seeing how the young uns play.

I'm hoping for a Giants/O's WS. All that orange & black will confuse everyone.

Cubs are supposed to be the team to beat this year (which will probably happen often in September, if history is any guide...)

Otherwise, the OP has it right.

The Cubs have been the team to beat since 1876.

Cubs have huge expectations this season; basically anything less than a NL pennant will be a disappointment.

The White Sox, OTOH, Have no expectations, but could make things interesting.

Much like the Red Sox and the Mets, the big question is how will the Cubs screw it up this year?

F'ing Samardzja was a freak of nature as a TE at Notre Dame. Is he that much better as a pitcher?

Prediction: Phillies will stink. As an A's fan also, I never know what happens because of the time diff, i.e. can never watch on TV.
