    What are the odds on Texas to win the WS?
    There is no reason for them to not be able to win, lineup mashes from top to bottom.

    Have the AL Cy Young winner as their top starter.

    Basically have it all.

    What are their odds?

      Twins are a contender...now that they have 2 decent closers to go with that power

      Damn...I wish they could have gotten Cliff lee

        I'd put them in my top 4 of likely winners..

        Yankees
        Texas
        White Sox
        Tampa

        No one from the NL even scares me, MAYBE st louis, the rest are sad

          Im a Texas fan so Im a bit biased and I try to stay grounded but cant help it this year and Im feeling that this year is it with them. xspecially if these trades work out. You will know in 2 weeks where they stand because they go on the road to the Angels, Mariners, A's then back home to the Yankees and Red Sox. Thats a tough 2 weeks now.

            Braves will win the WS. They have the best starting rotation and bullpen in the majors.

                      I'll agree that the Braves are the team to beat in the NL, but they don't have best rotation or bullpen. One of the best, but not the best. The crown goes to the Padres.

                      ESPN is the place for MLB stats! Find a list of the Batting Pitching team stat leaders for the 2025 MLB Regular Season.

                        LOL at the braves. Pavy you are a homer buddy.

                        As for the rangers

                        Brock the orioles have a better chance. You can win being square in the baseball reg season but the playoffs are where the rangers will be exposed if they even make it.

                                                    http://espn.go.com/mlb/stats/team/_/...hing/split/128
                                                    Braves took 4 out of 6 vs Padres beating them twice in their pitcher friendly park. If they meet in the playoffs Braves will smoke them. Great pitching always beats good pitching.
