The Pirates will finish with a better record than Seattle, in a tougher division this year.
I have enough old video of 2001 to get me through the year, no worries.
God I hope you're just baiting, with both those predictions.
I predict the AL wins 65% of inter-league games this year. The difference between the two leagues is getting insane.
I'm actually kind of optimistic this year with the M's. Lots of young guys with tons of potential that will get a bunch of playing time. I bet they score at least 150 more runs than last year.
We also have more Felix Hernandez's than anyone else.

Braves!!!!
I don't need to tell you what a small sample size is. I'll take the 250 game sample over a 4-7 game one.
Just for shits and giggles though, over that same stretch the AL has won 31 WS games, the NL has won 29.
It doesn't take much research to figure out that starting in the late nineties, the rest of the AL started to spend money out of necessity to keep up with NY. Since then it's just been an exodus of talent from the NL to AL. Two years ago the three best first basemen were all in the NL, Now they're all in the AL. Last year the AL outspent the NL by nearly 10 million per team.
Of course it should all level out next year when the Astros switch leagues :hump:
I'll eat crow a little bit, the NL East is going to be pretty good this year. Both those divisions are tough.
I'll back up the M's vs. Pirates though. The M's aren't going to be good, but I think they'll win 75 or so.
I'm a betting man, I'd put a MT whitey or bear hunt up against a WY antelope hunt on it

I'm off to Spring Training in AZ tomorrow bright and early, staying through Sunday. Going to a different park everyday and can't wait.
My team will hold up the rest of the NL West from the bottom. Go Padres!

I'll take that bet. The Pirates win more games than the M's this year.
I have no idea why I'm taking that bet...

blue devil---Glad to know there's a guy on here that knows what he's talking about, LOL! If the pitching is average to a hair above, the Tigers will go all the way with the offensive lineup they will have top to bottom this season.

I'll be expecting an 80"er.
Is anyone else having a hard time not booking flights to Miami for this summer? This might be the best thing to ever happen to baseball.

What the hell am I talking about?
The Pirates are in the Central, which is so, so bad.
New MLB Pool up!

I agree! Can't wait to see how this season will go. Started a little rought, but it appears they may have righted the ship!
Being a St. Louis fan I'm enjoying that a bit, especially since the Cards are playing pretty well so far. Now if they can get Wainwright on track and Carpenter healthy...
