I demand that the Nukes be removed from the list of contenders.

Finally, it's Opening Day in America. I cannot wait for the White Sox to begin their 2012 campaign in Texas tomorrow and wonder how many games they'll play before we get an opportunity to see who may close out the rare victory.
 
Based on the league's current rosters, owners' in-season trade tendencies (and, with regards to owners who do trade, the quality of their moveable parts), and the depth of teams already stung by injury, I boldly predict the following teams as:
 
CONTENDERS
 
Angry Young Men
Berliners
Nukes
Mighty Red Hots
Lake Michigan Calamari
Flaming Brats
 
Mind you, that list does not project their order of finish. But I think the 2012 champion will emerge from among those 5 teams.The champion will have to make bold, decisive moves on the trade front to reach the finish line first. Each team has its share of shortcomings, but can rectify at least some of them with its available talent pool.
 
With respect to the rest of the league, those teams (i) elected to rebuild going into the draft, (ii) did not have a strong draft, (iii) already have been ravaged by too many injuries to sustain the long and bitter war ahead, or (iv) some combination of (ii) and (iii).   
 
I encourage you to weigh in, but keep your remarks civil.
