Benjamin's Annual Baseball Preview: Part 1

DANDY! It is time for my 1st Annual Baseball Preview. Enjoy. Or don't, my feelings won't be hurt.

This is Part 1 of 8 of my preview. Over the next couple of days (whenever I actually get around to writing it) I will be posting Team-by-Team previews from each division and a Conclusion post.

Keep in mind this all can and will change when injuries, natural progressions toward greatness and oblivion of various players, and free-agent pick ups and trades take effect. Plus if Blue Jays ever give legit playing time to our patron saint, Salvatore, they become immediate favorites to win it all.
