Hello there, and welcome (back) to Drake University! The beginning of a new school year always brings the climax of Major League Baseball, so what a time it is. There’s a few storylines I’d like to highlight here in the first issue that I’ll follow for the rest of the season.
Some of the more interesting stories this year have been the Machado Pursuit (ending with him in a Dodgers uniform), the AL West race (which has seen the Mariners, Athletics and Astros all look like World Series favorites at times), the Yankees and Red Sox returns to great baseball and reviving the rivalry and the roller coaster race for the NL Central.
