Early comments on the American League West

The American League West seems to be a wide open division as baseball spring training is about to begin.

Last season, the Texas Rangers took the A.L. West crown for the first time since 2011, a year they came so close to winning the franchise’s first World Series.

The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim and the Houston Astros were both in the race well into the final week of the season.

I see more of the same this season.

As the spring training progresses, I will offer both early and ‘official” predictions in this and all the divisions in baseball.

Alas not picking the wild card entrants does make their presence vanish. Too bad!
