Looks like u have as much faith in players as u do in teams, just scary if u get an injury or something, i mean, if a team gets an injured player they can replace him and hit your bet, if a player gets an injury, then a bet may be cooked :P id just hate to pound some1 over 25 hrs to see him get critically injured @ 22 hrs..

When you have a big amount of question marks you'd be lucky for half of them to go your way. I think the Blue Jays have a plethora of question marks and need at least 75% of them to go their way just to be .500 this year.
Their lineup, offensively, looks pretty good on paper, but thats before factoring in the question marks in Reyes, Bautista, Lind, Melky Cabrera, and Brett Lawrie. Between injures and suspensions over half their lineup have either spent extension time of their careers on the DL, suspended, or just flat out inconsistent. They will put up runs, but thats not nearly enough to compete in the AL East.
The main reason for my wager is their (horrendous) pitching. The AL East is LOADED with hitting, so if you can't pitch, you flat out won't compete. Their rotation right now looks like Dickey, Buehrle, Happ, Hutchinson, and Morrow. So a one-year-39-year-old-wonder, an unmotivated over the hill Buehrle, Happ who's been getting rocked in spring, Hutchinson off of Tommy John, and Morrow off injury. Good luck in the AL East with that and without much quality backups available in the minors. Their bullpen is solid at the back with Janssen and Santos, although Santos has been hurt consistently last few years and Janssen battled injury this spring. Besides them, Cecil is their off an All-Star year, and then they have a bunch of dirt.
I've watched baseball for year, and if theres one thing I have learned about the AL East during that time is that you cannot survive without pitching. Throw that in with an inconsistent lineup (which is also weak at the bottom w Navarro and Goins) and I will gladly surrender my money if that team plays .500 or better baseball.
More to come.
