Only one team will be crowned World Series Champion in 2011, and there are probably only five serious contenders according to most baseball pundits.
However, that doesn’t mean that other teams can’t or won’t win the World Series this year.
Technically, it might not be “World Series or bust,” for all of these teams, but each one on this list has made moves this offseason and have the pieces in place to make a serious run at a title if things fall into place.
Some have made blockbuster free-agent signings or trades. Others have locked up stars on their roster from last season. Then there are those squads that are just counting on their stars to stay healthy this season after coming off injuries in 2010.
Where will your favorite team be ranked on the list of teams with the best shot at winning the Fall Classic?
Let’s start in the American League with the Los Angeles Angels.
