With the SI baseball preview coming out this week (what a glorious week!), TV makes his predictions on how the divisions breakdown. Next week he does individual awards.

I love Verducci...:wub:

Who's doing the SI Preview? If it's anyone but him, I ain't touching it.

Only predictions I didn't agree with are the AL East, NL West, and World Series. Although I will say that I don't think the Red Sox are as good as everyone makes them out to be.

West: The Angels might be the deepest, most versatile team I saw this spring. Their ace (John Lackey) goes down and it hardly matters.

Umm hardly matters, WTF?

Anyways, Boston will finish ahead of New York and Colorado won't win the West, they just had a huge month of September.

What part of that do you have a problem with? The depth or that John Lackey is their ace?

I think the fact Lackey is their ace. At least that's what I think. How can losing your ace and top 10 SP not mean anything?

The depth.

The Halos are one of, if not the deepest team in the league, but if Anaheim is going to have one weakness this year, I'd say it would be the starting pitching. They have a good rotation 1-5, but take one out and they don't have many solid options for replacements.

It doesn't hardly matter. Lackey is a potential Cy Young candidate.

Lackey and Escobar out through mid-May and Shields heading that direction, the Angels may be in trouble early. Especially considering the M's April/May schedule.

Yeah,


I like his Prediction on the NL Central. I have a feeling Pirates, Cards, and Astros will all struggle as the NL Central continues to be the Weakest divison.

Houston has alot of power but no pitching except for Oswalt. I look for them to perhaps become sellers by mid-season but please dont get rid of Hunter Pence...... :wub:
