Old School Meets New School
When playing in Coors Field, offense is never really an issue. The Rockies, once again, should have plenty of offense, but the issue will be on the mound. Colorado made some offseason moves to address their pitching concerns, mainly in the bullpen, but that’s not likely to lead to much of an improvement in their record from last season....
Milwaukee last found itself in the postseason back in 2011. Since then, the Brewers have been trending downward. This offseason, new General Manager David Stearns has shifted direction, looking to go the route the Astros and Cubs went a couple years ago. This could be a tough season if you’re a Brewers’ fan, but Milwaukee looks to be punting the present for dreams of the future....
At this time last year, every expert was predicting the Nationals to win the NL East in a landslide, approaching 100 wins. Shows you how good those prognosticators are. The Nats have been a trendy World Series pick since 2012, which coincided with the arrival of Bryce Harper and Stephen Strasburg. But the excitement is tempered a bit following an 83-win campaign last season....
The Pirates are used to winning a lot of games. Their 98 victories in 2015 were tied for the third-most in franchise history – and that’s a long history. Pittsburgh has qualified for the postseason in each of the past three seasons, but lost the Wild Card in each of the last two. Now it’s about avoiding that one-game playoff by winning the NL Central, but with the Cards and Cubs both looking strong, it’ll be a tall order....
After three straight seasons of diminishing returns, Philadelphia bottomed out in 2015, losing 99 games for the team’s worst finish in almost two decades. But heading into 2016, there’s plenty to suggest that the Phillies are heading in the right direction. The roster is young and full of promise, but with a short history of production at the major league level....
The New York Mets shocked the baseball world with a trip to the 2015 World Series.After so many years of sub-par performances, the turnaround came much quicker than most expected. And while it was fun to watch, it has now put the Mets in a place they’ve rarely been: the favorite....
The Braves will likely be battling with Philadelphia for last place in the NL East this season. And that’s on purpose, as the club is going through a full-blown rebuilding process, selling off nearly every last tradeable piece this winter to continue bolstering their farm system for the future. The team has received a bevy of top-rated prospects, but few are major league-ready, which means another lean year for the Braves in 2016....
The Rangers went from worst to first in 2015, improving by 21 wins to claim the AL West title. Their season ended in Game 5 of the ALDS to Toronto but it was still a highly successful campaign. The question now is: Can Texas repeat that success, or even improve upon it....
As great as Mike Trout is, the Angels don’t have enough pieces around him to contend this season. And with their MLB worst farm system, they might not be able to put the pieces around him anytime soon either. That’s a bummer because Trout is only 24, the best player on the planet and the time to win is now....
MLB Betting Online: Hope springs eternal in Major League Baseball. Your favorite team made a key offseason move, the prized prospect is ready for his breakout season or the injuries from last year have all healed. Whatever the circumstance, everyone is tied for first at this point....
The Kansas City Royals are the first team in big league history to come from behind to win six games in a single postseason. Now, they can become champions of the world for the first time since 1985 if they can take out the New York Mets in Game 5 of the World Series on Sunday night....
The New York Mets know they aren't clinching the World Series at home this year, but if they can find a way to take down Game 4 against the Kansas City Royals, they can ensure a trip back to Kauffman Stadium next week and make the Fall Classic a best-of-three situation....
If anyone can find the New York Mets' offense, there are a lot of people in the Empire State who would pay a huge reward for locating it. All of a sudden, the Amazins have gone silent at the plate, and that's why they're in an 0-2 hole in the World Series against the Kansas City Royals....
The Kansas City Royals have made a huge statement in the World Series, winning the first two games to move within a couple steps of a championship. The New York Mets aren't done yet though, and they'll look to cut the lead in half Friday night in Queens....
