10 of my thoughts and opinions on This Baseball Season

So this is not in any order but with baseball in season I am starting to get into baseball for real. So here is a list of opinions I have. I will be writing a lot of sports articles soon. This is in no particular order I am just writing what I think

  1. After the last few years of the Indians being hyped they are not this year... and are actually winning: The most amazing part is Michael Brantley has barely played. But Francisco Lindor has played luckily for them and has been great.  There pitching has finally stepped up. 
  2. It is a new era for shortstops: Years ago we had Garciaparra, A-Rod and Jeter. Well now we have a lot more especially if Manny Machado moved back to shortstop. You have Xander Bogaerts, Lindor, Carlos Correa and I would even say Didi Gregorious and Andrelton Simmons oh and that is just the American League. You have Addison Russell and Corey Seager in the National League. There are also a few prospects that have potential. Speaking of prospects...
  3. ... This might be the year of the call up: Tim Anderson, Julio Urias, Jameson Taillon, Blake Snell and Max Kepler are among the prospects that have been called up. Expect more to be called up. 
  4. This may not be the year but Jameson Taillon and Gerrit Cole have the potential too be a 1-2 punch
  5. I was wrong: So I was one of the first people to say what the heck? to the San Francisco Giants for signing Jeff Samardzija. Well shout out to them because he has been good. Brian Sabean is one of the best for a reason 
  6. The Cubs are good... but hold your horses people: The Cubs have everything it seems. But, that doesn't mean that they are the best team ever. There is still a long way to go in the season and anything can happen.
  7. The NL East has some interesting teams: The Mets and Nationals yeah we know they are good. But, the other three teams are interesting. The Braves swept the Mets last weekend. The Phillies have some talent and the Marlins have some really interesting players like Adam Conley and Justin Bour
  8. The AL Central race will be good: There are right now 4 teams right near each other and the race will be close 
  9. Zack Greinke stunk then we stopped talking about him and he has been great ever since: Zack Greinke has been very good recently and as someone with mental health I am thankful. 
  10. This season is going to be a lot of fun: The races are close we don't know who is going to be traded, who is staying, what prospects will be called up. This will be fun.
