I’m going to paint a dreamy picture here.
Imagine if you will, a tram full of unproven youngsters and a handful of vets that is predicted to finish 4th in their division takes the league by storm, swings a couple of key upgrades at the deadline and cruises to a division title and it’s led by erstwhile MVP, Michael Nelson Trout, whom turns back the clock with a monstrous season……
