2010 MLB Season 10 DAY PREVIEW Part 1
Alright baseball fans we have 10 days to the 2010 season kicks off. Over the next 10 days i am going to give you a preview of each division and my picks to take it all.
DAY ONE: AMERICAN LEAGUE EAST
Alright lets start with the American League East.
Lets start with the Baltimore Orioles. The Orioles are simply the worst team in the division. I am sorry when you have Kevin Millwood as your number 1 starter you have problems.
Pitching will be the problem for the Orioles all year long. With Millwood 13-10 and Jeremy Guthrie 10-17 being the veterans on the team. If the Orioles have any shot of making it out of the basement the will need big seasons from Brad Bergesen 7-5, Brian Matusz 5-2 and Chris Tillman 2-5.
Prediction 5th place 70-92
Toronto BlueJays are a team that could finish 3rd or lose 100 games in this division but look for a fourth place finish from this team. To simply put what the BlueJays future holds will be seen opening day when Shaun Marcum completes his comback from injury. For the Bluejays to have any chance at doing anything this year Marcum, Ricky Romero and Brandon Morrow will need to carry this team. The have a decent offense to stay in most games.
Prediction 4th place 75-87
Boston Red Sox many what a pitching lineup they are going to have. My only concern with the pitching staff is can the stay healthy? my thought no!
Dont like some of the moves the have made and will be worse on the offense side of the ball. They will take a step back this year but will still play exciting ball.
Prediction 3rd place 84-78
Tampa Bay Rays are going to surprise once again. Offense is strong and Defense is going to be one of the best in the league. My only concern with alot of their young players is confindence. If the stay healthy the will battle for the title right up until the end of the season.
Prediction 2nd place 92-70
CHAMPS
New York Yankees
The Yankees wont win 100 games this year and the wont runaway with the east title. The Yankees will give you a heartattack most nights watching them play. The pitching is awesome regardless who the pick as the fifth starter the offense is old but damn good.
Look for the Yankees to win alot of 1 run games this year.
With their age comes the worries of injury and if the can fight thru it the will win 94 games and claim the east title by two.
94-68
Well this is just my thoughts on the upcoming season. Good thing the play the games.
