And so it begins!!!

Well it's almost here!
Only a few more days until another baseball season. Also only less than two weeks until the Sea Dogs home opener at Hadlock Field. One thing is for sure it gonna be cold. Well lets look ahead to the 2011 season. Here are my predictions for the upcoming season.
American League
East- Boston
-Strong starting pitching Lester, Buchholz, Lackey, Beckett, Dice K and the addition of Adrian Gonzalez and Carl Crawford.
Central- Minnesota
-Always a contender. Probley led by one the best managers in the game Ron Gardenhire. Chicago with with additon of Adam Dunn will come up a little short.
West- Oakland
-Strong starting pitching and bullpen, question is will they have enough offense? Defending AL champs Texas will not be a major contenter with no ace in the staff.
Wild Card- Los Angeles Angles
-Veteran team, (Torri Hunter, Jered Weaver...) Will the #4,5 starters be conistant this season (Joel Pinero, Scott Kazmir)
Pennent- Boston
National League
East- Philadelphia
- Best starting staff at least in the last 25 years...(Halladay, Lee, Oswalt, Hammels, Blanton) 4- 20 game winners? Only question for philly is how will there offense hold up? If Chase Utley need season ending surgery will be a problem
Centeral- Milwuakee Brewers
-With the addiition of Zach Grenicke and Shawn Marcum this gives the Brew-crew a solid 1-2 punch in the rotation. With Prince Fielder in a contract season he should have a strong year to lead the offense. Cinci will have a good year but not good enough. Cardinals without Adam Wainright to lead the staff will make it very tough for them. The Cubbies wait another year.
West- Colorado
-With a strong pitching staff and offense should be keys in the Rockies winning the west this year.
Pennent- Philadelphia
World Series Winner (drum roll please..........)
Boston Red Sox
-
