The 2014 baseball season is already underway with the Dodgers beating the Diamondbacks (and during this writing, the Dodgers up three on Arizona, so awesome start, D-Backs). But it's still early enough to give my thoughts on how everything will shake out in time for the postseason.
I'm not giving record predictions because, in baseball, that's just crazy. I'm only going with where each team will finish and if they'll make the playoffs.
