    1. New York Yankees — The Evil Empire has successfully weaponized the pinstripes into a barcode that allows Aaron Judge to phase through reality and steal signals directly from the catcher’s pituitary gland.

    2. Los Angeles Dodgers — Shohei Ohtani is clearly three smaller baseball legends standing on each other's shoulders under a uniform, and the league won't let us investigate because the ticket sales are laundered through a fake asteroid mining conglomerate.

    3. Baltimore Orioles — These children are too fast and too young, leading me to believe they are secretly bio-engineered racehorses dressed in human skin to satisfy the bloodlust of the Maryland inner harbor.

    4. Philadelphia Phillies — Bryce Harper’s headband is actually a government-issued 5G relay station designed to broadcast pure, unadulterated aggression directly into the brains of everyone residing within ten miles of a cheesesteak.

    5. Oakland Athletics — John Fisher is currently selling the stadium’s plumbing on the dark web to fund a private expedition to find the actual center of the earth where he plans to move the team’s designated hitters.

    6. Houston Astros — The trash cans were just a distraction from the fact that Jose Altuve has a small, sentient hummingbird living in his helmet that whispers the secrets of the universe and the upcoming pitch sequence.

    7. Chicago Cubs — The ghost of a 1920s bootlegger has possessed the ivy at Wrigley Field and is slowly absorbing the outfielders to fuel a forbidden gin distillery located beneath second base.

    8. Colorado Rockies — This entire organization is a front for a high-altitude experiment to see if a human being can survive purely on thin air and the crushing psychological weight of a 14-run deficit.
