MLB 2004's Iron Balloon

[John Corn]

Meaning, the most inflated team which will quickly drop when the season gets fully underway. The most overrated as we go into a new season.

So far, the obvious choice is Baltimore. With all the hype about the money they've spent, there haven't been any serious improvements which point to them as being a viable contender.

I will give you another one -- Houston Astros...

Kent, Bagwell, Biggio, and Clemens are all key players and all on the wrong side of 35. Their two best pitchers are coming off of injury laden/mediocre seasons, they lost one of the best relievers in baseball, and their right fielder is wildly inconsistant. Nice pick Sean

I even think the Yankees will implode as they will miss the reliable arms of Clemens and Pettite.

ARod's signing will torture the BoSox fans, but there are too many inflated egos in that clubhouse already (I still can't believe that the Mets couldn't make a deal happen as ARod was a Mets fan growing up).
