Favorite Baseball Teams in 2008
I’m an admitted bandwagon baseball fan. I love the sport of baseball but I don’t love any specific team. The last team I loved was the Montreal Expos — and we all saw what happened to the Expos. However, each year I latch on to a few teams and watch those teams a little bit more. Who are my favorite baseball teams in 2008?
Los Angeles Dodgers
The combination of Joe Torre and Manny Ramirez trying to climb the mountain all the way to the World Series is a good story. Those two long-time rivals are now fighting for the same cause on the other side of the country.
Chicago Cubs
The lovable losers are actually winners this year. This is one of the best Chicago Cubs teams in a long time. If the Cubs are ever going to end their World Series drought, wouldn’t this be the perfect year?
Texas Rangers
The Josh Hamilton story is just too cool not to follow. Hamilton has gone from heroin to hero in record time. Although the Rangers don’t have much of a chance to make the postseason, they have an puncher’s shot.
Tampa Bay Rays
Who can’t love what the Tampa Bay Rays are doing. In years past, the Devil Rays were one of the worst franchises of all-time. Seemingly overnight, the Rays are now making a run at the American League playoffs.

[…] song and video is amazingly corny, it’s worth at least one listen. And yeah, it is definitely hard to root against the Rays right […]

Nice article.
I love the Chicago Cubs. The way they play the game is simply fantastic. I do believe that they must win the World Series this year because they have a bunch of excellent players.
