Money Makers

It's never too early in my book to display which MLB teams are sending home the profits. The MLB season is still very young, but there are a few teams we might be able to expect to contribute throughout the season.

Milwaukee Brewers - The Brewers are a top a weak National League Central, however, they may be the surprise team in '07? The Brewers have been doing it both at home and away. With a 16-9 record, look for the Brewers to be in the NL race up until the end.

Boston Red Sox - No surprise here. With a dynamic batting order and an extremely solid pitching staff, the Red Sox are trying to rebound from last years disappointing end of the season. The Red Sox are a well rounded team and will put up one hell of a fight to contend for the World Series crown.

Cleveland Indians - The Indians are showing signs that there will be quite a dogfight in the American League Central. The offense and pitching have been timely and have stepped up at the right times. The Indians have contributed to early MLB profits, but the question is whether they can keep it up?

Atlanta Braves - After losing the NL East for the first time in 12 years, the Braves are trying to bounce back from the '06 season. There will be great competition down the stretch with the Phillies and Mets battling to win the NL East. The Braves have lost Hampton again for the year and are relying on young talent. It will be interesting to see how they will withstand adversity when it hits.

Arizona Diamondbacks - The Diamondbacks are another early surprise on my list and in the NL. They are a very streaky team, starting the season 9-4 and then drop seven of eight before their current run. If Brandon Webb and Randy Johnson can stay healthy, Arizona will be around all season long.
