My predictions:
Top team: 1923 Giants, they are loaded on offense and have enough pitching to dominate most days.

Biggest Surprise to make the next round: #29 Seed 1968 Reds, Led by Rose, Bench, and Co, this team just may crack the top 16.

Biggest Upset: #6 Seed 1905 White Sox. They have plenty in the way of pitching, but will they score enough runs to compete? I say no.

Batting Champ: Honus Wagner('04 Pirates)

HR Champ: Frank Robinson('62 Reds) just edging out Hank Greenberg

Most Wins: Three Finger Brown('06 Cubs) He could very easily rack up 30-35 wins if the Cubs can score.

There are gonna be a ton of interesting races and matchups in this league. The HR race is loaded....Mantle, Aaron, Mays, Greenberg, Frank Robinson and many more. Which catcher will have the best season? Bench, Piazza, IROD, and Berra are in this league and each had a good season in real life. Babe Ruth will be vying for the most dominant pitcher in this league. I also can't wait to see how some of the stud pitchers match up: Gibson vs Plank, Three Finger vs Carlton.

Tune in tomorrow..........
