    They have baseball there.

      But its not the MLB, hence merchanising money going to JBL instead of MLB .

          Great news for Cincy:

          First baseman Joey Votto and the Reds agreed on the framework to a 10-year, $225 extension Monday, a source told ESPN.com.


          Votto gets 10 years. Wow! Jocketty somehow got it done!

                  Well, technically they were all on their respective NL Central teams in 2010 as well .

                      And what exactly do you have against the year 2008 (and a teeny bit of 2007)?

                        St. Louis vs. Miami at 7 PM starting the... American portion of the 2012 Regular Season .

                        Any predictions? Here are mine:

                        American League (ie, the Devil Harboring [DH] Division)

                        East: New York Yankees
                        Central: Detroit Tigers
                        West: Texas Rangers
                        Wild Cards: Los Angeles Angels followed by the Tampa Rays

                        National League

                        East: Philadelphia Phillies
                        Central: St. Louis Cardinals
                        West: San Francisco Giants
                        Wild Cards: Washington Nationals followed by the Milwaukee Brewers

                        World Series: Texas Rangers (3rd time a charm?) vs. Philadelphia Phillies

                          AL: Rays, Tigers, Angels, with Yankees and Rangers as wild cards
                          NL: Reds, Phillies, Giants, with WC = Dbacks, Marlins

                          WS: Tampa Bay over Philadelphia

                            Your AL predictions sound pretty good. Lots of firepower in the AL this year. I don't agree on the NL though. I think the Nats will be knocking on the door, but not quite there yet this year. I hope to be proved wrong though.

                            American League (ie, the Dominant Hitting [DH] Division)

                            East: New York Yankees
                            Central: Detroit Tigers
                            West: Texas Rangers
                            Wild Cards: Los Angeles Angels followed by the Tampa Rays

                            National League

                            East: Philadelphia Phillies
                            Central: Cincinnati Reds
                            West: Arizona Diamondbacks
                            Wild Cards: Miami Marlins followed by the St. Louis Cardinals

                              I think the Nats are a more solid team front to back than the Marlins. Also the team was 80-81 last year (one game didn't count in standings - rain out likely) and added Gio Gonzalez and will get Stephen Strasburg back and Jordan Zimmerman for a full season (plus added Edwin Jackson as a 3/4 starter).
