    • I'm going to predict Rangers vs. Dodgers in the World Series.

        • They haven't been the Senators in your lifetime.

                • How in the world is Strasburg and Kershaw on the list when the best pitcher in baseball this season, Johnny Cueto, isn't?

                    • I'm just stopping by to say the A's are awesome and Texas/LAA/DET/CHW/NYY/BAL/TB all suck in comparison.

                        • Time for some traditional Chicago homerism...

                          Chris Sale, 15-5
                          K - 155
                          ERA - 2.81
                          WHIP - 1.06

                          Sale has been dominant (well, except for his last start against Baltimore).
                          As valuable to the Sox as Verlander is to the Tigers.

                          • Verlander sucks. Even the Sox could beat KC given 8 runs...
