LAST SEASON: 102-60
OUT: Philip Ashby, George Shipley, Steven Rekar, Russell Barnes, Xavier Romero
IN: Albert Nieves, Charlie Baxter, Fred Rooney, Ronn Torres
PREVIEW: The St Louis Cards are my Nemisis...LOL. Rklongball always puts together a great team and it's always a challenge to play him. He won the Division for the 7th time and still looks for his 1st Mcabe Title. This off-season he let Ashby go to free agency and released Shipley, Rekar and Barnes. He also lost Romero on the waiver wire. Rklongball signed free agent catcher Nieves and picked up R-5 Players Baxter and Rooney. Finally he traded for Catcher Torres. With his catching core solidified ,Rk picked up a few role players on the cheap. Still he has a solid core of good players and is still the favorite to win the division. And maybe this will be his lucky year to win it all. PREDICTION:98-64

LAST SEASON: 87-75
OUT: Dennis Watson, Jocko Kingland, Gerald Guerrero, Tony Mercado, Louie Chiba
IN: Octavio Colon, Keith Alfaro
PREVIEW: Kennedrj had a decent year and went to the playoffs as a wild card. The Astros were swept in the first round by the Champs.......no shame in that?? This off-season he started by letting Watson go to free agency and released Kingland, Guerrero, Mercado and Chiba. Then in the biggest free agent signing this season, Kennedrj signed Octavio "The Squid" Colon to a Max Contract (5 years 120 million). Finally he promoted catcher Alfaro. Since kennedjr took over this team 4 years ago he has increased his payroll by 35 million. And has spent it all on big time free agents. Maybe the addition of Colon will put them over the hump. Its a high priced gamble. They will give St Louis a run fer his money. PREDICTION:92-70

LAST SEASON: 80-82
OUT: Doug Schulte, Juan Mendez, Herman Karl, J.R. Perry, Anthony Buck
IN: Johnny Green, Tanyon Blackmon
PREVIEW: It's been 5 long years since my team has had a sniff of the playoffs. And the Texas fans are getting restless. I let Schulte, Mendez, Karl and Perry go to free agency, then I released Mr Buck. I signed Free agent pitcher Johnny "Show Me The" Green ,and picked up another pitcher in the R-5 (Blackmon). I brought up several youngsters last season and with a couple of lucky breaks I hope this team can get back to winning. I will know by the All-Star break. PREDICTION: 90-72

LAST SEASON: 77-85
OUT: Keith Huson, Robb Kirk, Chico Hernandez, Vern Sisk, Manny High, Chris Davis
IN: Philip Ashby, Craig White, Steve Tannehill, Santiago Bonilla, Rickey Wood
PREVIEW: The last couple of years TenaciousTYT has been retooling. Picking up a prospect here and there. The Royals had a down year winning only 77 games . This offseason Tenacious started by letting Huson and Kirk go to free agency. Then he released Hernandez, Sisk, High and Davis. To plug dem holes ,Tenacious signed free agent Ashby . Then he picked up R-5 players White, Tannehill, Bonilla and Wood. Looks like another rebuild year in Kansas City. He will concentrate on picking up Prospects. PREDICTION:75-87
