On a sidenote you do you know that I talk shit about every other team too right? Well okay, I suppose don't talk shit about them too often on here since a good 90% of the other MLB teams don't matter here, but nonetheless I always keep a couple of points about why each team sucks in my head just in case I feel like arguing with some random naive fan I don't know who's trying to be all happy and optimistic and shit about their favorite team. Remedy and Infinite probably know this to be true.

I'm genuinely optimistic about this team though. Obviously completely up to health. But if they stay healthy, I like the chances.

& yeah, it's true. There aren't any perfect teams in baseball. You could always pick apart teams...besides the Cardinals. That team is just ready for their own dynasty until 2020 as long as they keep Wacha, Wainwright, Miller, Matt Adams, Matt Carpenter, Oscar Tavareas, Yaider & Allen Craig

Personally I like Phelps as a fifth starter (that's right, I just said something positive) but he'll get the job anyway in a few weeks when somebody gets injured so, whatever. And while his chances of making the rotation were pretty slim, I would've given more thought to maybe including Nuno considering how he's a lefty. If CC goes down with an injury the Yankees are going be pretty fucked if all of their starting pitchers are righties.

The Cardinals disagree. They had six first round picks in 2012 and four of them were compensation picks. And because they're the Cardinals, those six draftees will all probably be big league regulars by 2018 and continue the everlasting dynasty that Cham mentioned.

Granted the Yankees don't get to draft anybody until the 56th overall pick (which is in the second round) so they might as well...

Hack Wilson - real:
not a bad first start
