What is the story about?
Man, the AL East could be wild this year. Outside of the Rays, it isn’t hard to see any team winning it. And let’s face it: it’s never a good idea to overlook the Rays.
So how do you see the strongest division in baseball shaking out? I change my mind on this nearly every day. Today, it’s hard for me to overlook the high-end talent at the top of the Yankees roster. I’m convinced that the Orioles will have a bounce-back season and I liked their offseason moves, but I’m thoroughly unconvinced of their pitching
depth. The Blue Jays will regress, I think, but they have enough talent to stay in contention all year.
As of today, I’ll go with:
- Yankees
- Orioles
- Red Sox
- Blue Jays
- Rays
Ask me again this afternoon and I may have changed my mind.
