Today is the most exciting day of the year as it is opening day for Major League Baseball. Thirty teams all think they have a real chance to hoist this trophy at the seasons end. Twenty-nine of them will be wrong. However, there will now be six teams from each league that will make the playoffs and once in, anything can happen.
So, once again I am prepared to go where no man dares to go, I will predict the final standings, playoffs, and top three awards. Last year I was about as accurate as my dogs picking names from a hat. I think I'll be better this year.
