So after most teams are already 1 series into the season, I was wondering what you guys were thinking would be the most surprising thing not to happen this year? If you click other, please explain!

I voted "other". Most surprising thing to me would be if the Cardinals some how do not win the World Series. The team is stacked...

If the twins don't disappoint me I'll be shocked. I'm expected them to be bad though so it's unlikely. Still, I wouldn't put it past them, never underestimate the losing power of the twins.
Win Twins!

For them being the favorites. To Win it all they really have a poor looking defense. Good point. We look bad in the opener. Regardless, bourjos is a huge upgrade in CF over Jay defensively. Carpenter at 3b is much better upgrade than freese defensively. Wong has the potential to be above average defensively. I think the defensive problems were more of a lack of focus than lack of skill.

I voted other for this one reason: Lets see if Morneau can be the player he once was. Im rooting for him to take his crown as the best canadian baseball player. Votto is one good player though not to mention Lawrie.

most surprising thing will be Mike Trout not winning the AL MVP.
