Last year, the Baseball Major League season brought new sense of hope for prior losers.
We saw the emergence of the Tampa Bay Rays, the league’s perennial loser, win the American League championship.
The Philadelphia Phillies won the World Series, their first in 18 years.
Also, we have, recently, seen the sport’s biggest star, Alex Rodriguez, admit to using performance enhancing drugs and falling from grace.
What can we look forward to this season?
Well, the Chicago Cubs have reloaded and look poised to have a shot at their first championship in over 101 years. This hopeful win will finally end their curse.
Will the New York Yankees and their enormous payroll equal success?
Can the Tampa Bay Rays continue to win?
The only way to find answers to any of these questions is to watch this new season.
