    I CAN believe how much these wise guys are idiots...!!!


    Hey'a Rick- did you see the MLB TV year end predicitons? Those idiots have KC to win the AL Central, but get this, they never once mentioned KC's Pitching staff, not once, only their bats, and how awesome S. Perez their catcher is, and Moustakis, gee golly what are these dudes smoking? Cowshit???

    As far as KC goes, The only Pitcher I see worth a shit is Shields. His ST numbers are real bad, and I wonder if that will carry over....24.2 IP, 26 Strike Outs, to only 2 base on balls-(very nice-thats about all tho'), a 4.74 ERA, 20 Hits, 3 for HR's. I believe Shields will have a good year, but CANNOT see KC taking the AL Central, that title is Detroit's for the taking or losing, IMO.

    At least they got the Bombers straight, well almost: 3 of 5 MLB TV analysts chose NY to win the AL East...that too should be the Yanks for the losing. I do think the Team, Beltran, Ellsbury, McCann, Gardner, will have banner years. I pray Derek hits at least .300. I think Jeter will have periods of hot streaks followed by cold ones, through the entire season, prove me wrong Captain. I have major doubts over Tex, or his ability to even finish the year healthy if at all, just my opinion. I'd love Tex to have a banner year, but I think his best day are behind him, (please prove me wrong, Tex with 36 HR's, 125 RBI's, 165 Hits-I'm dreaming now).

    I've never been a Bums Fan, rather a Giants Fan for the NL, (I loved those 60s Yanks 1st always, then Giants, Cardinals,and Bums, in that order.) Lasorda single handedly made me despise the Bums. Not until Torre and Donnie came to L.A., have I rooted for those Bums.

    I am sold on the Dodgers, this year, as far as NL goes. The NL should be theirs for the taking, barring injuries. Most Baseball Analysts are picking the Bums to win the NL. Barring injuries, they have no excuse not to, and 300 million dollar reasons why they should.

    The Yanks will always be my Team, and I shall be buried wearing my NY hat, old coat, and #23 Jersey. I'd love nothing more than to see a Classic World Series of NY whipping L.A.
