Everyone wants to predict who wins the WS, but what 's the team that will hover around 0.333?
I think it's the Devil Rays. Sanchez is the first guy to get suspended from roids, Piniella's been frustrated for a while, and the rest of the AL East is very strong. Do any of you guys have thoughts on which team will be the worst?

Pinella is a great evaluator of talent, and knew what he was getting into by signing there.
KC has no desire to spend money, and no talent on the field whatsoever. To start some arguements and get under some people's skins, though, I'd say the Mets are the worst
NL West - Rockies
NL Central - Pirates
NL East - Nationals
AL West - Mariners
AL Central - Royals
AL East - D-Rays
From here. I think the D-Rays (Have to play the Red Sox and Yankees 17 times each I believe) will lead the way.
Remember these Chuck Norris Facts
1. When Chuck Norris does a pushup, he isn't lifting himself up, he's pushing the Earth down
2. According to Einstein's theory of relativity, Chuck Norris can actually roundhouse kick you yesterday
3. There are no such things as lesbians, just women who have not yet met Chuck Norris
These teams were:
W L
Arizona 51 - 111
KC 58 - 104
Seattle 63 - 99
Montreal 67-95
The only team that will move out of its cellar this year will be Arizona (Thank God for Colorado). Please note, this doesn't mean some of the other teams cannot improve on their records. You can still have an 81-81 team in the cellar, although I don't see it happening this year.

But this year, Oakland traded away 2/3 of their quality starters for players who are least a year away. Texas played out of its head last year, and it's unlikely the entire team will overachieve like they did last year. Anaheim (of LAA, whatever they are called) has turned into a west coast version of the yankees, with the owner spending like mad to bring quality in.
As unlikely it is that Texas will overachieve this year again, it's also unlikely that the Marines will underachieve as they did last year. I guess it's easy to look at last year's records, ignore the offseason moves and trends, and spit out your predictions.
This may seem like it's just coming from a bitter Seattle fan, but honestly, I don't care what you all think I'd just like you to choose to use some thought processes when making your picks.
Seriously you jest....replace the word underachieve with el stinko.

And choking 4 games in a row after being up 3-0 isn't el stinko?
God you are absolutely blind to anything outside yankeedom aren't you?

How many rings do the Marineers have and I am not talking about onion?
mariners = 00000000000000000000000000000000
Typical NY fan...they ignore anything else outside of NY....
Greinke will win 15 easily.
Bautista will be a nice acqusition from Baltimore.....he went 8 innings tonite and allowed 3 hits.
Sweeney will have 30 HR and 100RBI again this year.
I guarantee KC will NOT be the worst team in the central this year.
Always looking for Topps Salesman Samples, pre '51 unopened packs, E90-2, E91a, N690 Kalamazoo Bats, and T204 Square Frame Ramly's

NL Central - Pirates
NL East - Nationals
AL West - Mariners
AL Central - Royals
AL East - D-Rays
Megatron is pretty close with 5/6.
LOL - 21 losses in a row, here we come!
<< <i>A)Everyone here is nuts - KC will be at least .500 this year.
B)Greinke will win 15 easily.
C)Bautista will be a nice acqusition from Baltimore.....he went 8 innings tonite and allowed 3 hits.
D)Sweeney will have 30 HR and 100RBI again this year.
E)I guarantee KC will NOT be the worst team in the central this year. >>
Lets see
A)42 games under .500. They are more games under than how many wins they have had.
B)3-14 WOW!
C)Bautista. He did pitch well. Too bad it was only for 3 games though.
D)Sweeney 18 HR 62 rbi...not looking so good for 30/100
E)in last by 18.5,
Do you have any football picks?
I'm just glad I didn't catch this thread at the start of the season. I would have predicted big things for the Cubs.
My Auctions
Football picks - yep, I gottem - Chiefs in the playoffs
What's worse, I can probably say KC will be the worst next year too.....heck, our #1 draft pick (Alex Gordon) isn't even signed.
Thank god for Prozac!
