Even a gentleman from the complete other side of the world recognizes groundless bombast when he reads it.

I agree. I don't think they made any significant off-season changes so there's little reason to believe things will change as far as the bullpen. That AL Central is a tougher division than i

Harps .220 MVP season coming up. 

Maybe, but at 1.00 homers per game so far ......

But really, it'll be one D. Murphy for the MVP.  And which team declined to keep him?  :whistle:

Chris Sale tosses 7 shutout innings and the Red Sox walk off in the 12th. I'm enjoying this season already.

The team looks good so far, even with the flu.

If the Reds win this afternoon to go 2-1, I'm canceling the rest of the season. Just a heads up.

As an Indians fan I'm loving this season so far! Solid pitching rotation, improved lineup over last season, cant wait to see how it will shake out this summer! I'd love to see 95-100+ wins out of this team.

Their bullpen is one of the best in baseball.

When you can tell your starters to go 6 innings because we have 5 shutdown guys in the pen. That is a big weight off their shoulders. 

The Indians almost beat the Cubs with out two of their three best pitchers. 

Only Boston is the real threat to them in the AL.

All bravado aside, I'm liking the National's start.  Two good starts by the pitchers, Harper hitting well after an off year, and an inexperienced closer getting a couple of saves.  Its a long long way to go, but its nice to start well.

My prediction is that the Cubs either repeat as WS Champs, or, they do not.

I gotta admit, I'm still liking the Nationals start.  Best record in baseball at this early stage of the season, 6-0 on their road trip (including 3-0 from the mostly disabled Mets).  Starting pitching is routinely excellent, hitting is very good, and even the bullpen seems stabilized.  What's not to like?

I haven't been paying much attention to baseball, but it looks like NL Central is about as competitive as the AL Central so far - which is to say that even though neither teams is winning, they're both just a few games out.

It's a long season and I'm not ready to give up, but the Tigers seem to just be going through the motions right now... not a lot of energy.
