most have Sox or Twins winning the division.  For the Tigers, it depends on Cabrera.  I'm sure that he'll have a typical year.  If Miggy can drink most of the season and still put up monster numbers, I'm okay with it even though he has a drinking problems.

 

The big key for the Tigers is the back end of starting rotation. If Porcello can pick up where he left off in 2nd half of the season, the Tigers should be fine. As long as Penny and Coke can eat up innings, I'm fine with it too.

Just bring back the day/night double headers.    First game is 1:05 and ends at 4 or so.  Leave Copa and hit the Cafe for a burger and Pop.  Then back at 6:30 for a 7:05 start.

This is one of the main reasons why I can't get into baseball.  I don't understand how hard of a game it can be if you can play two games in one day.  There is no way that you will see a double header in professional football, basketball or soccer.

The political structures of 1903 have nothing to do with the end of March typically still being too cold for a warm-weather outdoor game.  When I start pining for governments of a bygone era, I'll come back and read your post again.

Well, for one baseball players don't have to wear heavy wool uniforms, there have been significant changes in textiles allowing players to play in colder weather. I routinely work in -20 degree weather outside at my field site in the winter. I would not even want to think about doing that with clothing from the 1900's.

Also, some cold weather teams have these things called domes now that change the game.

it doesn't mean it's a good idea.  It's a warm-weather game, regardless of advances in clothing.  The season can creep further towards both ends of the calendar, but should it?  No.

And yes, I think the NHL and NBA seasons are too long, too.

That the last Cubs World Series win was a full 15 years before the fall of the Ottoman Empire.

Go Tigers!  But if Curtis Granderson gets a few hits, that's cool too.
