    Which team has the brightest future?

    Honestly I'm not that familiar with any team's farm system other than the Brewers, but I'd say the Braves. They've got some good prospects coming up.

    Don't worry. We'll trade away all our prospects.

      At first glance, I'd have gone with Baltimore, since they have like a full 5 man rotation of young guys either up already, or on their way in Matusz, Tillman, Arrieta, Britton, and Erbe, as well as a young core in Wieters, Jones, Pie, Reimold, Markakis, etc.

      However, considering that they have to contend with the Yankees, Sox, and Rays in the AL east, it kind of dims their future a little bit.

      Texas has a whole boatland of talent out there in the AL West. Feliz, Holland, Smoak, Davis, Borbon, Martin Perez etc. Hard to bet against them having big things in their future.

      In the NL, it has to be the Marlins, as usual. They already got a fairly young core in Johnson, Nolasco, Hanley, et al, as well as Morrison and Stanton on the way up.

        The Baltimore Orioles look promising, but they play in the AL East. We won't see anyone in the AL East make the playoffs except for Boston and New York.

            Braves - Jurrjens, Hanson, Heyward, Escobar.

            Rangers - Andrus, Neftali Feliz. Them alone will win keep Texas relevant.
            If only those 2 could be added to the above 4....:banghead::banghead::banghead:

                As much as I wanna say Mariners I cant because we traded our whole farm system for Erik Bedard, so Im going Orioles.

                  I really like the Orioles' future with all those young pitchers and outfielders

                    Stopped right there. Apparently you were asleep for most of the past decade.

                      Orioles without a doubt. All the doubters say we won't do anything cause we're in the AL East. Wait a couple years.

                        Seriously why are people picking the Dodgers?!?!?

                        After the suck fest of a season they have this year they will be cost cutting and trading talent like Kemp, Either and Krenshaw for young minor league talent. They are about ready to blow that team up and take on a big rebuilding project soon. The signs are all there, look at the talent they let go this off season in FA.

                        They missed they're window to win a world series...

                        Back on topic.

                        As much as I hate to say it the Phillies probably have the best out look for the future. They have a good mix of young talent and top tier Vets both in the line up and on the pitching staff.
