Cleveland Indians to win AL +40000

Yeah, you are laughing now but won't be here when they start winning. Great bullpen, solid line up, and good young players. You think Francona would come back to managing if he didn't think this team had potential. Lot of good additions.

I will do a write up later tonight when I'm not busy so everyone doesn't think I'm crazy trying to make a bold pick. I really believe they can make noise.

Rzrbk 1st off welcome to covers

2nd i hate to do this but what you put on here is the same crap that Indians people tried  to promote on All Bets Are off with Bruce Drennan on STO. I will counter with this stat LY there was a team who was in 1st place for only 1 day LY it was The Oakland A's and it was the last day

Your Pitching sucks. Masterson and Jimenez will be gone by july same with Cabrera. Santana has never been the same since the knee injury. Swisher is a pissant imo who i would drill with a fastball. Mark reynolds can't hit above my weight. Sorry to come off like a dink but as long as you have the manchurian candidates there in Antonetti and Shapiro you ain't winning anything

Antonetti hired Francona because Francona put this clause in his contract. If Antonetti and Shapiro are fired He can opt out of his contract. Francona hasn't won anything without a high payroll

But welcome to covers Rzrbk yous eem like a nice guy

I am going to take Indians to win the AL Central and them to win the AL. If they win the Central or even make it to the playoffs as a wildcard I will start to hedge as it is 40/1 odds they win the AL. Great odds for a team with a good coach, great bullpen, good line up, and pitching that can be decent.

Orioles win AL East and Orioles Win AL Championship.

For NL I like Reds to win NL Championship and Giants to win NL Championship for now. Will look into NL more in depth.

I will be playing a lot of over/under wins. Over Indians wins, under BlueJays wins. Over Tampa Bay Rays wins. Over Rangers wins. I have to see the numbers though.

Grady Sizemore is a free agent I believe. He was a really good player, but injuries have kept him out. I don't think he is comming back any time soon.

As for the A's, I believe there is too much hype around the team which usually means they will not do as good. I think they will win a good amount of games, but Texas will probably take the divsion. You have to remember, Angels, Texas, and Mariners (had a great 2nd half of the season) are in that division...it's not a cake walk at all.
