I kind of think the Angels might be the team to beat...although KC seems built for this type of year.I don't think you are wrong about the AL. I think Toronto would have the best chance out of the AL. I can only hope that the NL teams beat themselves up.
I hope the Cubs win it all.
I have nothing against them directly, it's all hate by association because of Maddon. I hope they underachieve every year with him and once he's replaced, win as many as you like.
Cardinals are in legit trouble. Injuries have really hit them hard. They are definitely ripe for the picking and I would love nothing more than for the Cubs to knock those MFers out.I think the Pirates/Cubs are sitting in a good spot...they get the Cards, who have been awesome, but they are not awesome now. The WC winner may be the NL favorite. I also like the Mets match up with LA too...Kershaw and Greinke are not great to go against in 1 and 2, but the team as a whole has limped to the finish line.
If the Mets do end up playing the Cubs/Pirates in the NLDS I don't feel good about it. The Cubs have owned the Mets and the Pirates just have a very veteran, professional way about them that showed when we played them. It is going to be fun though...all these teams are exciting. IMO the AL pretty much sucks donkey dicks, but I could be a bit NL homerific.
Oh I know, but the meme still applies!I have nothing against them directly, it's all hate by association because of Maddon. I hope they underachieve every year with him and once he's replaced, win as many as you like.
Thankfully the Harvey talk has kind of died down, but all this stuff coming out in the stretch run pissed me off. I love Harvey, but Boras may make him tough to re-sign...although if things go well this year, the guy can own New York.Cardinals are in legit trouble. Injuries have really hit them hard.

Funny, I don't feel great about the Cubs facing the Mets. They did totally own them this regular season but that was a different Mets team. Honestly at this point I think the Cubs can beat anyone but they are relying on so many young bats in big situations it is hard to imagine them going to far this year. The rotation after Arrieta and Lester is very questionable too. The NL is just brutal.
Come again?Been awful quiet in here since the BoSox fan was popping off. 3 games gained in 3 days... Ouch.
Starting to look like the Astros will pass them for the division title, and the Twins will leave them on the outside looking in for the WC.
We haven't even been getting Jerry Callow updates.
No sarcasm here, either. Not often I want the Rangers to win. I need them to beat the Angels.Go Twins!! (not sarcastic and just for this weekend).
I want no part of playing Toronto first so need KC to lose.

I'm hoping for a sweep. Really want that 90th win.No sarcasm here, either. Not often I want the Rangers to win. I need them to beat the Angels.
I told you this yesterday, but after all the injuries I expected around 75, and thinking if we got to 80 it would be a successful year. 90 would be f'ing awesome.I'm hoping for a sweep. Really want that 90th win.
