2026 predictions, anyone? [View all]

Random thoughts. Please add yours.

As it stands now, barring injuries, trades, call-ups, etc ...

I don't expect L.A. Dodgers to repeat as champions. They will remain a force though.

Toronto and Seattle will vie for the AL championship.

Cleveland has made enough improvement to surprise everyone again and win the AL Central.

San Francisco will be a Wild Card playoff team.

Yankees will finish third in the AL East.
