The Mariners' hype train is getting crazy. Seems like it's everyone's trendy pick. Articles of 'boom or bust' everywhere. SI cover too? Oh man.

Yeah. Same concerns. Although health is something that just happens, so hopefully their depth shows if that happens.

As for expectations...I'm glad they have a guy like Cano who's been there, done that.

I think if Ackley gives them a full season like his 2nd half, they just might live up to the hype. I swear, he's the linchpin to bringing it all together.

Astros are definitely on the come up though.

I just assume Oakland will always be in the mix. The other two teams, I have no idea. Crappy contracts and a depleted farm for the Angels and a rebuild for Texas. Doesn't Texas have a wealth of top prospects down on the farm though?
