The 2018 MLB Random Thoughts Thread

Houston Astros are the defending world champs Their biggest threat in the AL is CY Young award winner Corey Kluber and the pitching dominant Cleveland Indians. Aaron Judge and newly acquired Giancarlo Stanton could power the Yankees to the pennant and their rival Boston should be a factor.
In the NL,the Dodgers are the defending league champions,but the Nationals are gonna be a problem Cubs are still a huge threat. Arizona should have another strong year as well.

Although not a fan of any particular team (no MLB teams in north Florida and mlb app blacks the games out for rays and marlins), I watched more Pirates games than any, very sad to see them move on from Cutch, and as a result I'm now a free agent.

Who should I watch this year brehs

Yankees are on the brink of something special. Despite what people will say, it's not a bunch of mercenaries. This is mostly built from minor league development and shrewd deals.

The Yankees could legit have a shot at winning it all BEFORE they wanna go crazy and buy everyone next winter.

I dont really like longoria trade cuz it seems like a patented old FO move (young prospect with upside traded for declining vet and leaves behind a barren farm) ...I like the bandaids they put on offense...but I dont know how we can fukk with the loaded dodgers
