The Braves feature Greg Maddux, John Smoltz, Steve Avery and supplemented those three with Chris Bosio. The offense features Chipper Jones, Fred McGriff, Paul Molitor and Greg Vaughn. However, the Braves got off to a slow start losing their first 9 games. The Braves are currently 4-14 so the team still has plenty of time to recover.

NewGuy1912 used the 3rd pick of the draft to choose the Seattle Rockie Mariners which was a surprise given their team salary. However, NewGuy1912 has led 2 of his 3 90s teams to the playoffs winning one championship so it's hard to bet against NewGuy1912. The Mariners feature Randy Johnson, Erik Hanson and Jamie Moyer as starters. The offense looks impressive--Alex Rodriguez, Edgar Martinez, Vinny Castilla, Dante Bichette and Ellis Burks lead the way. Interestingly, Ken Griffey Jr. was released after an injury reveal. The Mariners are 9-9.
