I think all four will make the playoffs. The Sox only real competition in that WC race is Tampa.
He was implying that the Cards would be the team sitting at home come postseason time. And, of course, he's rightQuote:

Yanks. They will make a trade in July to get a DH/position player. Nick Johnson will be dead by then. Bye bye Jesus Montero
Uh, wat?
he said that the yankees were going to win the ws and that in July they are going to trade jesus montero for a postion player/dh when nick johnson "dies"Quote:

I really do like my cards chances this year, of at least playing in late October.
Really just depends on two things.
Will Carpenter and Wainwright get 50 starts between the two of them?
and will the back end of the bullpen be effective.
I think we could lose one of Holliday or Pujols all year and still score enough runs to win 85-90....it really just depends on our pitching.
I like the way we match up against the Phillies honestly...I see both teams rather equally. Objectively
And unsurprisingly, fans of those 4 teams voted for them, fans of other teams voted for the "another team" option.
Not reallyQuote:

Obviously, this means the Rockies are ****ed.
13-11 ha!
I could go with Jim Caple and pick the Phillies to miss the playoffs, the Diamondbacks to win the WC, and the Giants to beat the Twins in the Series...but, I'm not a *****...So, I'll take door #1, Alex.
And the White Sox? Since it's not like Alex Rios and Andruw Jones are going to hit better than .230 this year, it isn't happening.
I think Rios will bounce back.
But, I don't see them going to the playoffs.
Perhaps...I even think they could win the Central, but no way they make it through the likes of the Yanks, Red Sox, Rays.
P.S. - Mariners = no more than 78 wins.
Rangers win the West.
Rangers? They were such a fluke, imo.Quote:

i too like the rangers and angels as the top two teams in teh AL West. I predict the Mariners struggle as well.
They're improved from last year...Quote:

Although, saying the Mariners will finish with less than 78 wins is pretty funny. To be honest, I'm pretty sure everyone except the Twins in the central will finish below .500 with the entire West above or at .500 for the second year in a row. Angels I doubt do well, I know they've outplayed their pythag and early season sims, but that rotation is already dropping like flies.
disagree, agree with what tang said.Quote:

I don't think Texas' rotation is that good. And eventually that will hurt them in terms of winning the division, imo. IF Harden puts in a full year, yeah I'd probably see them as more of a thread but that's an if.
They did, the rest said, "Who the hell is tang?"Quote:

Is it sad when I saw that he was hurt I thought of thisQuote:
