I hope your kidding...lol

No Im not. This team is the real deal this year. We've got all the pieces in place to make a run in the playoffs.

braves, phils, marlins are all better though FPS

Cards should be in the mix for the WC and Milwaukee if they dont have the division. both are better

Rockies/Dodgers/Giants is going to be a 3 horse race and im sure the 2 who dont win are going to at least be in the hunt for the wild card. i think these 3 teams are better.

I was being sarcastic. I think we will be better than people think, but not great. I think we will fight for .500 and be fighting for 3rd in the NL East.

Cards wont be in the mix for the WC, you can count on it with Wainwright out for the year.

Cubs "scuffle" in Spring Training still makes me laugh.

Lonnie Chisenhall is apparently tearing the cover off the ball. Hopefully it's enough to convince Tribe management to start him opening day, instead of some stiff... He doesn't need any more time in the minors.

i was excited to see the Dodgers on ESPN, then i was disappointed because i thought i had school at the same time they play (5 pacific), then i found out the other day that i dont have school that day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love when baseball season starts, its just very different to the other professional sports. You can just feel it in the air, ya know?

opening day is my favorite day of year, maybe the best day in all of sports
opening of march madness is in the discussion too (the real tourney not conference tourneys or the play in game or games i guess this year), along with the NFC/AFC title games sunday

and i agree with you 100% FPS

Tigers reliever Joel Zumaya is undergoing tests on his sore right elbow and forearm and there's a chance he might not be ready by Opening Day.

Detroit trainer Kevin Rand says no major structural damage was found and the club is being aggressive in trying to identify what's wrong.

It will be at least two weeks before Zumaya is cleared to throw.

i swear, i hate this dude.

I knew he wasnt gonna last very long with how fast he throws and the way he throws.

Adrian Gonzalez makes his spring debut today! I think he is going to win AL MVP.

 

[Elite]

Yeah, I predicted that in the predictions thread, I'm hoping Robby Cano wins it though

Speaking of predictions I think I will make mine today.

Grady was able to run the bases for the first time this spring.. Him getting healthy and producing is one of the few scenarios this year that would let us compete.. But I doubt he plays well.

 

[Mexi]

lol Dodgers line-up is going to suck ass

luckily, so will SF's
and the Rockies lack pitching so it'll be a 3 horse race all season

Mexi join the SI Baseball fantasy league lol. We have 10, but 12 if you join because Greg will join if we can get an even amount of GMs.
