I like the Rangers chances of Oakland. They still have some pop in their lineup and if they are able to sign Kyle Lohse, That would be a pretty good rotation with Yu, Harrison, Lohse, Holland, Ogando/Lewis/Feliz.

I disagree. Josh Johnson's arm is falling off, Reyes isn't what he used to be, & Buerle isn't very good. The Jays will be a good team with Lawrie, Bautista, and E5 but I think they are being overrated right now. Still behind Rays and Yanks at the moment.
No way are they behind the Yankees and Rays.
Have you seen their lineup?
Reyes
Melky/Lawrie
Bautista
EE
Rasmus
Melky/Lawrie
Lind
Arencibia
Bonafacio
with Rajai Davis and Maicer Izturis on the bench. Bar none the best lineup in baseball.
If healthy easily a top 5 pitching staff in the AL too.

The Astros will not finish the season with the worst record.

Go Reds! 
Two great things about Tennessee fans. They hate Bama and Georgia, and a lot of them are Reds fans.

Their rotation goes 5 deep. Josh Johnson and Dickey are Cy young caliber guys. Morrow is your #3 and will K 200 guys. Buerhle and Romero are your 4/5 and they are more than solid. Bullpen is also deep as hell and Sergio santos is coming back; he has lights out stuff
Ok thanks I did forget they got Dickey, maybe they have a better chance than I thought.

Oh and for my predictions:
AL East- O's
AL Central- Tigers
AL West- Angels
AL WIld Cards- Rangers and Yankees
NL East- Nationals
NL Central- Reds
NL West- Dodgers
NL WIld Cards-Cardinals and Braves
ALCS-O's vs Tigers
NLCS- Reds vs Cardinals
World Series- Cardinals vs O's (Cards in 5)
Hope I'm wrong about the playoffs though.
Go Redlegs
AL East- O's
AL Central- Tigers
AL West- Angels
AL WIld Cards- Rangers and Yankees
NL East- Nationals
NL Central- Reds
NL West- Dodgers
NL WIld Cards-Cardinals and Braves
ALCS-O's vs Tigers

O rly?
Who will? I think the only real move they made was Carlos Pena.
Boston, Minnesota, Seattle, Miami and Colorado were the worst teams in their respective divisions. All are better than Houston with Miami probably being the worst.

Yes that's fair, but the Dodgers had the lead and gained those great players, yet they failed. Same goes fore the Marlins last year too.

Don't know what Vegas puts it at. The lines weren't up when I went last month.

Just found an article and as of mid Decemeber the projected wins = 53

I disagree. Dickey is moving to AL East. He will come back to earth. JJ will be injured by May. Buerle sucks. Romero sucked last year. I'll give you Morrow. He has filthy stuff. That is a lot of question marks for this "top 5 staff".
I like some of the pieces of their lineup like Reyes, Lawrie, Joey Bats, and E5 BUT:
What can you really expect out of Melky? Which Melky will you get?
Rasmus has been terrible more than he has been good. He has upside but we will see there.
Lind spent more time at Vegas last year than the bigs. Arencibia will hover around the mendoza line. And Emilio is solid for what he is but nothing special.
You guys are overrating this team just like the Marlins last year. They had a good team last year and will have a good team this year but they are still a victim of playing in the wrong division. They'll finish third in the division with a solid record.
Posted on 1/23/13 at 1:25 pm to RollDatRoll
No pussy footing around in my predictions this year. Astros will have the worst record in baseball for the 3rd year in a row. Rangers, A's, Angels are good teams and even the Mariners have taken steps toward getting better. The move to the AL will be a rough one. Who gives a shite though? I'm all in on tanking and getting a 3rd straight #1 pick with which we take Carlos Rodon.
