This week on Bullpen Banter the discussion focused on the AL West and how the teams shape up for Franchise mode in MLB The Show 16. Millenium and Pastapadre joined me in identifying where each team is fortified, where they have concerns, and how best to handle them for future years if controlling them in the mode.

Ultimately the ranking of AL West teams for Franchise was unanimous:

#5 Los Angeles Angels
#4 Oakland Athletics
#3 Seattle Mariners
#2 Houston Astros
#1 Texas Rangers
