The Tigers have one advantage the Phillies don't: their GM isn't RAJ.

I think the Phillies, Braves, and Twins are by far the least exciting teams this upcoming seasons.

You still got the BoSox to root for Rob.

Address pitching? One of the most solid rotations in baseball and one of the better bullpens. What do you want addressed? Want a $100 ace? It's a waste of money. De Aza, Lough, Snider, Pearce, and Young will fill in fine for Markakis. All Cruz did was hit bombs, so if the injured (and suspended) guys can get some bigger power numbers this year, his numbers are replaced as well.

I'm not saying they did everything perfect, but spending all their money on adding depth (decent, average players with some upside) instead of one or two older guys is fine by me.

The O's are going to be right in the playoff race in september, which sounds like a fun season to me.

the problem is nobody is respecting the Os. the last 3 years they have been really good, but everyone constantly calls it luck o flukey! that 2012 year with Jim Johnson getting all the 1-0 saves, last year they did it with power and the rotation playing above themselves.


I think their a solid team too and it's good that people keep doubting your team they use it for motivation

I know Buck and Jones were both smiling when most of the projections put them in last place again. They do love being the underdogs. They don't have any flashy pitching, but they're solid and play great defense

for those of us that are carrying our franchises over from 14 to 15 how if in any way will this affect us... ?
