The Mariner Monitor

It looks like it’s finally a done deal.  The American League and National League are going to have 15 teams a piece and the Houston Astros are going to move to the American League West.  There’s no word on how the schedule is going to work but I’m assuming we’ll be going with unbalanced schedules so we’ll be seeing them quite a bit starting that year.

The Astros should be bad again but it’ll be interesting to see if that changes between now and then.  Of course the Mariners need to shore up their offense before they can talk about competing.  Hopefully they’ll be able to capitalize on a weak Astros team and pick up some extra wins.
