Los Angeles Lengers
It's a good thing Lengas owns the franchise, because there's no way in Hell he'd still have a job as manager of this team. The big Comets trade loaded the middle infield with starters Jose Reyes and Chase "Butt-ley" Utley. This year, having two A starters will overwhelm other pitching staffs and get this team to its first playoff appearance.

New York Yankees New York and Milwaukee are basically identical right now, but the Yankees get the nod because theyneed virutally no offensive help going into the draft. Look for the Yankees to draft the best relief pitchers early in the draft and take starters later. They will most likely take Jon Papelbon if he falls all the way to the 7th spot, but don't look for that too happen. They may also decide to spite other teams and draft their wanted players and force trades. GM Kmiecik will have a lot of options heading into the draft.

4.
Milwaukee Maniacs
Who's on first? Pujols or Howard? Our bet's Pujols, so does that mean GM Fochesato will shop Howard on the trade market? The Maniacs lineup will be incredibly stacked, possibly the best in the league after the draft. Certainly high draft picks will help Milwaukee's championship run even more. They truely are the best team in the North Division. The competition isn't even close. There have been massive trade rumors for SS Derek Jeter, but seem far-fetched right now. Because of the soft division, count this team in one of the top three seeds at the end of the 2007 regular season.

7.
New York Comets
22-20
This team basically has nothing, outside of Kenny "The Gambler" Rogers, Carlos "Del-Got It" Delgado and Vlad "Eddie"Guererro. Where is this team even going to play? Who's going to own and manage the team? A low draft pick certainly won't help the process. There's too many major questions surrounding this team before we can even consider them contenders. However, there's still a long time to rebuild the team before the first pitch is thrown in teh 2007 season.
