Los Angeles Dodgers: When are they going to let the young talent take over? Why does this team keep signing veterans? Or is this the beginning of a plan to move some of the young talent for top notch veterans?
Milwaukee Brewers: Watch for Ryan Braun's transition to the outfield. He is young and athletic, but reading balls will be a little bit different.
New York Mets: They got Santana to be their ace. Will Pedro be healthy enough to be the league's best #2?
Philadelphia Phillies: The returning champs in the East do not need any distractions, so what happens with the Ryan Howard contract situation?
Pittsburgh Pirates: Another terrible year on the horizon. How many players are axed in Neal Huntington's building process?
San Diego Padres: After losing in the wild card game playoff, can this team bounce back?
San Francisco Giants: Without Barry, is this team doomed? The team had a 43% winning percentage when Bonds played and a 47% when he sat out.
St. Louis Cardinals: Does highly touted prospect Colby Rasmus show enough in Spring to make the club for Opening Day?
Washington Nationals: What will this team do with all of their depth? Who stays and who goes?
With that, enjoy Spring Training, and check back, as I am going full throttle this season.
And for fun, it would be neat if everyone who reads this could fill out a player card. Batter's Box Interactive has an interesting way they keep track of those who contribute to the website. I figured, what better way to kick off the real new year then to make our very own player card. So here's mine...
