Does anyone besides me even care? lol

I saw that last year's thread was made around this time, so I figured it was time for another one.

I'm sure my Red Sox won't repeat, which is fine, but I'm just ready for the season to get underway!

I'm ready to have my heart broken by the A's and Braves again. Not looking forward to the Jeter farewell tour though :pcrying:

Edited to add: OP, I don't think Boston will drop off that much. Wouldn't surprise me if the Red Sox, Tigers, Cards, and Dodgers all made it back to the LCS.

I was thinking about my Mets the other day and couldn't remember one player besides Wright.

I still thought Johan was on the team.

I'm here for this, for my YANKEES! Hopefully they bring it home since this is Jeter's last season. The Core 4 is going to be gone :pcrying: I can't believe Carlos Beltran is on the Yankees now, the Subway Series shall be interesting lol

Can't wait for the season to start, tigers better get it together there window of opportunity is running out verlander and Cabrera isn't getting any younger, if they don't win at least one world series with the type of numbers there players have put up the past few yrs it will be such a dissapointment

I know it's just one game, but if the Padres continue to play with the confidence they played with last night, the N.L. West will be dogfight this season.

IGAF but my Astros aren't too promising and I live out of market. I'll just bask in Rangers' sh!ttiness.

Don't sleep on the Astros. Not in the division they're playing in. I see no real dangerous teams in that division. They have a chance.

Basketball and hockey seasons are almost over so it's the boys of summer for the next 3 or 4 months. 25 years since Oakland's last title. Hopefully this is the year they end the drought. Cubs :dead:. The suffering continues.

I'm holding out hope that my Dodgers are finally back on track. Between the Kershaw No Hitter, Dee Gordon's base swapping, and Matt Kemp heating up, things are seriously looking up. Now to get down to Blue Heaven (aka Dodgers Stadium) to catch some more games!

The David Price watch. Hoping the Rays surge will keep him in Tampa/St. Pete and out of L.A.

Man, David Price getting his ass split wide open right now. An incredible 8 straight hits against him to open the 3rd inning.

EDIT: Make it 9, and they just yanked him (pun intended, they're playing the Yankees).

Both Oakland and Detroit have slumped since making those blockbuster deals at the deadline. "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." Both teams had enough starting pitching, IMO, but now they've screwed up confidence and offense while trying to bolster their rotations. Nagging injuries are a part of it too but we'll see if they're able to right the ship and at least hang on to a wildcard spot.

The Orioles and Nationals both have a chance to clinch AL East and NL East title tonight.

Wow, would have almost preferred if the mariners just sucked again this year so I wouldn't have wasted time rooting for them.

I was actually rooting for Seattle to pass the As down the stretch and will be cheering for them and the Rangers today. Oakland is garbage without Cespedes's bat in the line up. Billy Beane deserves to miss the post season for what he pulled.

Damn, Orioles made quick work of the Tigers. Thought they might miss Davis's bat but so far, they haven't.

The wild card teams are showing out. Love watching the Royals base stealing/base running. Hope they close it out in KC.

Congrats to the Royals and the Orioles on appearing in the ALCS!

It's good to see new teams make it this far into the playoffs. In other words, no Yankees and no Red Sox. I believe baseball fans have grown tired of seeing them in postseason year after year.

Agreed. I want the Orioles to win the ALCS but if they don't I'll be rooting for the Royals.
