2012 Baseball Season

[Tebow]

Anyone else excited for the season?

Predictions:
AL EAST: Tampa Bay. David Price, James Shields, Matt Moore, Niemann and Hellickson make a damn good rotation. I feel like they need one more big bat to be a power house.
I also see Toronto taking a big step forward as a team.

AL Central: Detroit. Aside from Detroit that division is trash and I'd have liked to see this lineup with Victor Martinez but it's still one of the top offenses in the league with a great rotation.

AL West: I'll go with the Angels but it's tough to call, I think they'll battle the Rangers until the end for the division, the one that doesn't win it should make a wild card bid though.

NL East: Not even being bias but I see Miami winning the division. Reyes, Bonofacio and Hanley are one of the most dynamic 1-2-3 hitters I've ever seen not to mention following them is Giancarlo Stanton plus the starting 5 and bullpen is solid up and down. I like the Nats but I don't see them making a huge step this season but they'll definitely be a force for years to come and the Phils rotation is always great but not having Howard (1/3 of their offense) and now with Chase Utley out I don't know who's going to produce runs.

NL Central: Tough one but I'll go Cincinnati, losing Fielder kills the Brewers and losing Pujols kill St.Louis, one of these teams gets a wild card spot though.

NL West: I'm liking Arizona again but I see the Dodgers surprising people behind another HUGE year from Kemp and I like Kershaw to finish neck and neck with Josh Johnson (if he can stay healthy) for the NL Cy Young.



World Series Predictions: Miami Marlins over Detroit (srs)

NL MVP: Hanley Ramirez
AL MVP: Miguel Cabrera

What about 1997? Eat a dick.

I was at this game, one of the greatest moments of my life (even if I was 4):

i was 1 when they were in the world series then, so i didnt even bring it up. tho it plays into the cleveland curse pretty well.

no.

I laughed at Hanley for NL MVP.

but Mike Stantons going to have a huge year.

also my Reds will do fairly good. hopefully chapman gets some games.

[Tebow]

Hanley's the most talented all around player in the game and Mike Stanton is a middle relief pitcher, Giancarlo Stanton will have a monster season yea.

Chapman was supposed to start but with a lot of Reds middle relievers going down with injuries so he's back in the bullpen for now.

I don't really care as much about the MLB season as usual. I have a feeling that the Red Sox will disappoint me again this season.
