Here's my rankings through the first weekend of baseball season:
1. New York Yankees (2-1): The favorites in my unbiased (LOL) opinion.
2. Los Angeles Dodgers (2-1): This team is loaded. Not going to lie they scare me (just a little).
3. San Diego Padres (2-1): The Padres impressed me more than any other team I saw this weekend not named the Yankees or Dodgers. They are young and talented. The only liability will be the pitching.
4. Atlanta Braves (2-1): The Braves beatdown over the Mets on Sunday was impressive.
5. Minnesota Twins (2-1): The Twins have plenty of talent and pitching and they could be ready to make some big noise.
6. Houston Astros (2-1): They would have been higher, but without Verlander I'm not sure what to expect from them moving forward.
7. St. Louis Cardinals (2-1): Another team headed for big things, Not as talented as the teams that won it all, but in a year with a crazy postseason I wouldn't count them out.
8. Chicago Cubs (2-1): The Cubs still have enough firepower on offense and solid pitching to do big things this season.
9. Tampa Bay Rays (2-1): A darkhorse team this season, building off of last year's momentum. They do just enough to win games and that's what matters most.
10. Cleveland Indians (2-1): The offense needs improvement, but their trio of starters on the mound can go toe-to-toe with anybody.
Until next time, Go Yankees!
