Enjoyed watching some of the games today.  I like this Opening Day in March on a Thursday...getting ahead of the Final 4 games; I remember last year having baseball games opposite the NCAA Championship game on that Monday night, which kind of took the spotlight away from MLB.

Here's my picks:

PHI, CIN, SF, COL

BOS, CHI, LAA, NYY

PHI over BOS in the WS...going with the teams that look strongest "on paper"; but, I really think if Philly stays healthy (the pitching, not Utley) they will be a tough out.

As for my Astros, I'll take the "over" on 71.5 wins and finish ahead of the Pirates ("Still better than the Pirates!")
