By Lauren Woode Follow her on Twitter: @LaurenIsLive The top of the National League East division had some of the more interesting matchups last year and 2013 will be no different.

Detroit’s Division to Lose: 2013 AL Central Predictions

By Lauren Woode Follow her on Twitter: @LaurenIsLive The Detroit Tigers have to start fresh after laying an egg in the 2012 World Series. They should top the American League Central Division easily in 2013. The team added Torii Hunter in the outfield. He’s a great leader in the clubhouse and a right handed batter […]

A-Rod Needs to Go – NOW

Poor Alex Rodriguez. Dude can’t seem to get out of his own way.

Bobby Valentine Is a Disaster in Boston

Last year I wrote that I thought Bobby Valentine was the right guy to manage the Boston Red Sox after the club parted ways with Terry Francona. Boy, was I wrong. The Red Sox currently sit 12 1/2 games behind the AL East leading New York Yankees.  The Red Sox are also three games below […]
