Hosted by : Brent Cardy, David Glassford and Brett Gard
On today's program
Our thoughts go out to the good people of Baltimore
We discuss the alleged Shohei Ohtani scandal and the affect it could have on baseball around the world. Of course we talked about Pete Rose.
Jordan Montgomery signs with the Arizona D-Backs. The Toronto Blue Jays dodged a bullet.
Then we get into our divisional discussions
The National League:
NL West
Could all 3 NL Wild Card spots come out of the west? Could the Los Angeles Dodgers implode? We know what the Rockies are. Could Bob Melvin be the difference maker for the San Francisco Giants? Did the acquisition of Dylan Cease put San Diego Padres back in a playoff spot conversation?
NL Central
Could the Cincinnati Reds surprise some people in 2024? Have we overlooked the Brewers? What will Craig Counsell's impact be on the Chicago Cubs? Have the St.Louis Cardinals taken a step back or will they improve upon their 2023 with their veteran pitching pick-ups?
NL East
Will it be the Atlanta Braves then the Philadelphia Phillies a top of the division or will it be Phillies then Braves? Who exactly are the New York Mets? We will have to get some insight into the Marlins with Lou Schiff
American League
AL West
After losing Eugeno Suarez and Teoscar Hernandez, who are the Seattle Mariners? Will the Youth of the Texas Rangers get them back into the deep part of the playoffs in 2024? Don't forget Scherzer and Degrom coming back. We will need to see what the Anaheim Angels can do. The Houston Astros are still in the conversation. Oakland well.... you know
AL Central
The 3 of us are taking the Detroit Tigers. With the caveat , that the Central is wide open. Minnesota may figure it out and Cleveland is still in the hunt. Definitely no Wild Cards here.
AL East
Brent says the Jays will finish in fourth place. Dave and Brett disagree. Arguments for both scenarios are pretty good. The Yankees have holes, the Boston Red Sox could be a surprise but the expectations are low. Watch out for the Tampa Bay Rays however it's the Baltimore Orioles division to lose.
Blue Jays expectations
What happens if they don't make the playoffs?
Who stays or goes, Bo or Vladdy?
Could the Jays be sellers at the deadline?
1 team that could surprise us all.
