In the first episode of our five-part spring training preview series, we're getting you ready for fake games by breaking down the 2019 outlook for the league's projected bottom-feeders, and identifying some notable players to watch throughout the Grapefruit and Cactus League seasons. Clubs discussed in this episode:
- Baltimore Orioles (yikes)
- Detroit Tigers (oof)
- Texas Rangers (hmm)
- Miami Marlins (booo)
- Pittsburgh Pirates (meh)
- San Francisco Giants ( ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)
