Thanks, OBF. Several great comments.
Re: NL team and no DH, as someone who grew up watching NL baseball, I've got to admit that I've grown accustomed to the DH. It would indeed be hard to go back.
Re: Rays, the bloom is off the rose since Madden left.
Re: Royals, that's actually one I should add. They dropped to .500 last year, but they could bounce back.
Re: Orioles, honestly the only two reasons I can think of to watch them are Showalter, who I like as a manager, and Machado. Adam Jones is good, but I can take or leave him.
Re: Radio, no sale here, sorry. The older I get it's hard enough to not wander off mentally while watching the games. As a young man I used to be able to do two things at one time, listen to Dodgers on radio and do something else. No can do any more.
Re: White Sox, Twins, agreed.
Re: Toronto and muricans, another great point I hadn't considered yet.
