I think people are recommending young teams so you can see up and coming stars of the game and get a feel for the MLB going forward the next 5-10 years.
Well that makes since.

Another thing..How does drafting work? Didn't I hear about a team that drafted Russel Wilson? How is that going to go down?

Yeah more so than the other teams. If I were in his position I would probably choose the Pirates or Rays. Rays are just well run and reload with young talent and have a style that's fun to watch. Pirates you get to watch McCutchen every day and have an excuse to make a trip to PNC in the summer.

Plus they have Cole and Alvarez with Polanco and Taillon coming up

Maybe but they have Strasburg/Harper two players that are fun to watch and the team has an excellent pitching staff with a good offense. Great team to follow

Jump on the Astros bandwagon early with me, so we can casty people together in around 5 years when we're winning the World Series.

i could never jump on the rays bandwagon because watching their games are so dull.

Plenty of room on this rays bandwagon. We welcome with open arms.

Well, being unknowledgeable about the game, he'd certainly fit right in.

Oh lord...no you've done it. Expect to be told repeatedly about how they cheer when the opposing team's player makes a good play.

Let's not forget the Cubs. They will be fun to watch in a few years with Baez, Bryant, Soler, and Almora coming up.
