With two wildcard teams now the chances of that happening are even lower
and face it, the AL Central teams that aren't the Tigers are pretty bad

Dr voltchball - best in the world.

I have the Braves pinned to regress this year

it's highly unlikely the bullpen will be as good as it was last year, and Chipper Jones isn't getting any younger

Detroit will win under 92 games.

Also go Giancarlo/LoMo break that stupid celebration thing.

I think both East divisions have three teams that could finish in any order, with the one at the top likely getting a wildcard. (Boston, Tampa and Toronto; and Atlanta, Miami and Washington) I'd love to see Toronto and especially Washington in the playoffs, the latter being my #2 team.

I think I'll make another vague prediction that two teams will have 100-105 wins, and one will lose 110+ (with no others having more than 99), but I can't say which ones will accomplish this. I still think the Orioles will avoid 100 losses again in another season where they are the only AL East team with a losing record, and nothing will change.

Time for baseball! This could be tough watching this game for me....augh Reyes.

I still love him though. I put no blame on him for leaving. Just......augh. Gonna be very hard seeing him in a different uniform, especially of a team I hate. And especially these stupid new Marlins uniforms.

2 wildcards run for the hills. Unless we cut down to 2 divisions anyway.

Congratulations to SuperNiceDog, Guru Winner, who was smart enough to pick
your 7 time champion, Link.

So my brother is going to today's Tiger game.

I wasn't too keen on paying $120 for a ticket so I'll be watching it from the comfort of my home

Such low-scoring games today. Guess it makes sense with all the aces pitching.

Yeah, opening days usually have a ton of low scoring games because it's Ace vs Ace for almost all the games.

good examples of pitching today though.

Rangers 1-0 in games where they are a strike away from winning!

I think it's important that you clarify that as a regular season statistic.
