2015 Preview: Tampa Bay Rays

I think a lot of people are writing off the Tampa Bay Rays this year because they moved David Price and have a lot of new faces in their lineup, but don’t sleep on these guys friends.

One reason I say that is this pitching is going to be very good.

2015 Preview: Minnesota Twins

A lot of young teams that have fallen on tough times are going to bounce back this year, i.e. Miami Marlins, San Diego Padres, Chicago Cubs, etc.

However, one team I think has one more year before they are there is the Minnesota Twins.

To be up front, I love the Twins. I love what they do as an organization with few resources and playing in a tough market, and have found ways to be successful.

2014 Outlook: Milwaukee Brewers

I look at the 2014 Milwaukee Brewers, and I like what I see.

When I first started putting together my power rankings, I was almost completely under the assumption they would be in the bottom five teams. But the more I looked at them and stacked them up with the rest of the league, I quickly changed my mind.

2014 Outlook: Toronto Blue Jays

When I look at the Toronto Blue Jays of the past few years, they have been one of baseball biggest puzzles to try and solve.

All of the pieces are there for them to be successful. When they went out last winter and unloaded a lot to get some major players they thought could help them get to the top. And while everyone said it was a now or never type of deal for them, I disagree. I look at the talent they put out on the field and think, this is a team that could be good for a couple solid years.

2014 Outlook: Baltimore Orioles

I didn't know how to start my Baltimore Orioles preview other than to say, I don't know how the Orioles have been so successful the past few years.

When you look at the Os, they definitely have some of the brightest young talent in the big leagues, I think, highlighted by their corner infielders, Manny Machado and Chris Davis. Of course, you can't leave out Adam Jones, Nick Markakis and JJ Hardy, who have been a staples in this lineup as well.
