I think this year's Giants team is the best team they have put together in several years. And that includes two World series winning groups. But - the Dodgers, and Diamondbacks are tough.

Gonna be a long, tough, fun season.

Play ball !

"But - the Dodgers, and Diamondbacks are tough."

The NL West is likely to set the MLB record for 1-run games.

Pitching is filthy in this Division. It's everywhere, up and down the line-ups and in the Bull Pen.

Best time of year. The Giants have a wonderful stadium. The Dodgers have Vin Scully, best announcer. And Pujols hit a home run in Spring Training yesterday. Kansas City opened today with a full house and even the standing room only was full. The Mets were in KC for wonderful day with 74º and sunshine. God bless American is sung at every game and there is no doubt that the Mid West fans are the best. I go to Angel games regularly and it is always fun to see visiting fans looking cheerful.

A-Rod is finally gone. What a nightmare that guy was.
