Josh Hamilton is going to the Angels. Are the big playoff contenders now? How does this affect their rivalry with the Rangers?    

What team helped themselves the most during the Winter Meetings? What team was most disappointing during the Winter Meetings?

Baseball’s Winter Meetings are well under way and we’ve seen a flurry of corresponding moves. Plenty of big names are still available though as the Hot Stove continues to heat up. What moves would you like to see your team make this offseason?

R.A. Dickey won the NL Cy Young Award and David Price won the AL Cy Young Award.  Did you agree with these guys as the winners for this season?    

The Miami Marlins agreed to a multiple player trade with the Toronto Blue Jays that sends Jose Reyes, Josh Johnson, Mark Buehrle to the Jays for prospects.  Is this fire sale the right move for the Marlins right now? Will acquiring these players (and contracts) make the Jays a contender next season?  

The Rookie of the Year awards are already announced and to no surprise Mike Trout and Bryce Harper came away with the hardware. Who will win the other major awards and do you see any surprises?

The San Francisco Giants are the 2012 World Series Champions.  Describe how amazing their playoff run was and where they rank in championship history.  

Now the Giants are up 2-0 on the Tigers. Yes, they were at home. But a lot of people are still surprised…are you? Do you think the Tigers can bounce back? Do you think the longer layoff hurt them?  

Verlander struggled, Giants were homerun happy, and won at home easily.  Should Tigers be concerned?  Does this change your opinion or prediction at all for this series?  

So the World Series is set…San Francisco Giants vs. Detroit Tigers.  So who wins and why?
