Basically it's what the title says. Who has been the biggest surprise and who has been the biggest disappointment this MLB season?
Surprise- This is an easy one. The Arizona Diamondbacks were one of the worst teams in baseball last year. This year with the season not even over they have improved by 35 games and have clinched the NL West. The roster hasn't changed much but Kirk Gibson has shown to be just as good a manager as he was a player.
Disappointment- I gotta go with the Twins. I know they ave had tons of injuries but they had a lot of injuries last year as well and they still won the AL Central. They went from division winner to second worst record in all of baseball. Even with all the injuries, and there were a ton, they didn't perform this year.
