December 2011
![]() It is just a little over 2 months until Spring Training begins and already the focus is narrowing onto several teams that made some big moves in the off season so far. The main focus will of course be on the Marlins who made the most noise this off season and everyone will be watching to see how their gamble has paid off. Everyone wants to know just how Pujols will do in south Florida. Everyone wants to see how the team's chemistry will mesh. Everyone wants to see if the Marlins can give the perennial NL East Phillies a run for their money both in players and on the field. The Nationals continue to make moves to try and compete in the NL East as well. They were able to get Gio Gonzalez and hope that it gives them even more to compete with out of their rotation. With Stasburg expected to be back full time, the Nationals will now have a very young and very formidable rotation. The rest of the NL East, Braves and Phillies, were basically standing pat through the off season. They both looked to make some trades, but both teams were unwilling to part with their top prospects and a lot of their money to do so. It remains to be seen if not doing so will cause them to lose games in the division to the two teams that did. The Rangers lost some big names but gained a prized addition in winning the bidding wars for Japan's Yu Darvish. Everyone will be watching to see if their multi-million dollar plan pays off on the field. It will also be Josh Hamilton's last year of his Ranger's contract this upcoming season and teams are already planning how they can get in on that action after the season is over before it even begins. The Yankees and Red Sox both have a lot to prove this upcoming season. Can the Yankees and Red Sox still compete? What about the Red Sox new manager and GM....will it make a difference on the field. Will the Yankees be able to get back to the post season? All eyes in the AL will be on these two teams to see if they can turn things around from last season. A lot of people are wondering if the Giants will be back in the mix this season. Will the D-Backs be able to continue their winning ways from last season? Can the Mariners rebound at all? Will Cuddyer give the Rockies the boost they need to get back to the post season? Only a little over 2 months until spring training opens and a lot of questions to be answered. What team will have made the right moves by either signing some big name players or by sticking with the teams they have? The countdown to spring has begun.
