Welcome to Opening Day (Predictions for 2017)


                Opening Day: two of the sweetest words in the English language. The only day of the season where all 30 teams are equal in the standings. Three games will kick of this first day of the regular season (Yankees vs Rays, Giants at D-Backs and Cubs at Cards), while the other 24 teams will join in the fun tomorrow.
                So without further adieu, let’s take a look at my predictions for the 2017 season. I know that the following won’t reflect what I predicted in my Spring Training Team Profiles in March but an opinion can change in 30 days. And, as always, don’t waste your money betting on my picks.
