Finally the wait for the baseball season to start is over! Both spring training places have started up games in both Florida and Arizona. The National League teams are in Arizona and American League are in Florida.
The World Champion San Francisco Giants, who have won two of the past three championships, are planning to repeat and they have all the pieces from last year to do so. Most of the free agents that could have left the Giants decided to come back and re-signed with the Giants to try and repeat.
Angel Pagan and Marco Scutaro, the two must needed players from last year, have signed multi-year deals with the Giants and they hope to keep the success of the team rolling. The best part of the Giants and also the most succesful part of the Giants is there pitching staff.
Matt Cain, Ryan Vogelsong, Madison Bumgarner, Tim Lincecum, and Barry Zito shut down everyone in the playoffs. They had the best pitching staff with Matt Cain and Madison Bumgarner leading the way and heading into this year they are the most talked about pitchers in the National League.
I am very excited for the Major League Baseball season to start and I can’t for the Giants to succeed this season yet again. They have a really good chance to win the National League West division even with the dodgers coming up with some big signings. I see the Giants winning a tight NL West race and hopefully making it to the World Series again.
