A- PREDICTIONS ARE IN:
ESPN:
NL WEST——DODGERS UNANIMOUS—
BUT HAVE GIANTS AS A WC—-
Our pick: Los Angeles Dodgers (26 votes)
Not a single voter picked another team to win the NL West. Why is this a lock for the Dodgers? Because we've seen them do it with so much less. The 2024 Dodgers are imperfect -- in terms of their rotation stability and infield defense, specifically -- but nowhere near as flawed as they were last year, when they reeled off 100 wins and claimed their 10th division title in 11 years. They've already mastered the six-month regular season, and now they're the deepest and most talented team in the entire sport, let alone the NL West. There have been years when the Dodgers have been vulnerable through this run. This is not one of those. -- Alden Gonzalez
NL wild cards
Our picks: Philadelphia Phillies (23 votes), Arizona Diamondbacks (19), San Francisco Giants (16)
Who else got votes? San Diego Padres (8), Chicago Cubs (7), Atlanta Braves (2), Cincinnati Reds (2), St. Louis Cardinals (1)
You picked all three of the teams that were the favorites among our voters to be a wild card. Why will that be the NL wild-card field? Well, first, I'm a little surprised that the Giants were such a popular pick. I think of them more as a sleeper candidate, even though I picked them, as well. Here's the dynamic in the NL, circa 2024. You have the Braves and Dodgers on their own level with no one else projected to be anywhere near them. At the other end of the spectrum, you have the Rockies and Nationals forecasted to be the league's punching bags. Then you have the Phillies, who look like the clear No. 3 in the league. Since Philly shares a division with Atlanta, that marks them as the most likely of the NL's wild-card candidates.
After that, there is no eventual end-of-season order of the other 10 teams that would shock me. I like the Diamondbacks as a team on the rise, one that should be better than last season even if they don't catch lightning in a bottle again at playoff time. And I like the Giants for the quality bulk of their offseason acquisitions, the potential of Jung Hoo Lee to be a catalyst atop their lineup, their overall depth and especially the potential of a rotation led by a big three of Logan Webb, Blake Snell and the electric Kyle Harrison. -- Doolittle
ATHETLIC: BOWDEN’S AWARDS
HAS WEBB AS CY:
Second place: Spencer Strider
Third place: Zack Wheeler
Dark horse: Freddy Peralta
I just didn’t want to go chalk with Strider because I think he’ll lead the league in strikeouts and pile up innings, but figure the Braves will pull back his innings come August and September to get him ready for the playoffs. Therefore, I decided to pick Webb, who was the runner-up to Blake Snell in last year’s NL Cy Young voting. Webb posted a 3.16 FIP over 33 starts last season and led the league in innings pitched (216) and walks per nine (1.3). His command and ownership of the lower part of the zone are special. I considered Wheeler and Peralta as well.

That was the consensus in a poll of 88 MLB dot com voters conducted last week.
"In a very tight vote, the O's top the Dodgers as World Series champs. Baltimore last hoisted the Commissioner's Trophy in 1983."

GIANTS WC:
It's worth noting here that MLB.com voters cast their predictions last week. If the vote had been held a few weeks earlier, perhaps a club such as the Padres would have slid into this spot. Instead, the Giants made multiple marquee moves late in the offseason, bringing aboard slugger Jorge Soler, four-time Gold Glove third baseman Matt Chapman and 2023 NL Cy Young Award winner Blake Snell, and ended up squeaking past their rivals to the south in the voting. Those transactions combined with the club's previous moves -- including the hiring of manager Bob Melvin -- could push San Francisco back into the postseason.
Others receiving votes: Padres, Reds, Cubs, Mets, Braves, Brewers, Cardinals, Pirates, Dodgers and Nationals

3- 49EERS—-
A- ITS TIME TO ADRESS THE OLINE
-DISAGREE—
| |
| |  |  | |  |  | "It's a good problem when your quarterback is one of the highest-paid guys on your team and in the league.”
#49ers CEO Jed York, in comments to local reporters, knows a major raise for Brock Purdy is coming nfl.com/news/49ers-ceo… | | | | 3/27/24, 5:30 AM |
| |
| |
JED IS OK W PAYING PURDY 40M — THINKS IT S A GOOD PROBLME TO HAVE—
I think that’s a good problem when your quarterback is one of the highest-paid guys on your team and in the league,” he said. “So there’s a lot of planning that goes into it, but I’m glad we have Paraag (Marathe), (John Lynch), Kyle (Shanahan) — they’re the ones that are going to figure out the details of it. I just have to sign the check. My part in that is kind of easy.”
York emphasized that it won’t be hard to sign that check when the time comes.
“The market is what the market is,” he said. “It’s not like Brock is going to ask for something that no one has ever asked for before. You have, I don’t know how many players making over $40 million as a quarterback right now.
“When we signed Jimmy (Garoppolo) so many years ago, it was the largest deal in the history of the NFL for three minutes. We paid Jimmy $26 or $27 (million), and the market has just changed. Whether I like it or not, that’s what the market is and you have to accept the reality of the world. And to me, quarterback is not just the most important position in football, but all of sports and those guys should be paid a lot of money.”
There are currently four quarterbacks making over $50 million annually and eight more making at least $40 million annually in the NFL. The quarterback market has soared and it’s very likely to continue doing so over the next year, before Purdy is eligible for an extension of his own.
