It's a good time to be a blogger, especially early in the season when anything can still happen. Quite a bit of digital ink is being HTMLed as members of the ESPN SweetSpot Network chime in on their favorite teams. Even if there are teams struggling in the early going, our intrepid bloggers are eager to propose changes. In other cases, we happily dive into the digits and peek at our team's history to see what kinds of tidbits turn up.
Below is a survey of some of what our ESPN SweetSpot Bloggers have thought about so far this week. Feel free to bookmark your favorite team's blog or catch them on Twitter to keep up with their musings midweek and even midgame!
