Wrap Up:
We did not preview all of the exciting matchups that 2018 will feature. The Cincinnati Reds will make a rare visit to Kansas City in June. Cleveland and Minnesota will be thoroughly entertaining when they visit as they compete atop the American League Central. The month of September will be full of good division rivalries and hopefully an exciting wave of call-ups. Also, when Eric Hosmer and Mike Moustakas find homes, their return will be a date to circle (assuming their new teams are coming to town).
