Saturday, April 3, 2010  2010 Predictions  With opening day
tomorrow it's time to make our predictions for the upcoming
year:  AL East 1. Yanks 2. Rays 3. Sox 4. O's 5. Blue Jays
Losing Matsui and Damon would hurt, except that Granderson will
more than make up for the loss of Damon, and a full year of Arod
+ Nick Johnson should help mitigate the loss of HMat. Add Javy
Vazquez to an already potent staff that includes my Cy Young
winner in AJ Burnett, and the Yanks are the clear favorites.
The Sox have a formidable starting staff, and as has been talked
about on the Worldwide Leader ad nauseum their D is improved,
but if you can't score runs it just doesn't matter! The Rays
have a more balanced attack and will take the wild card.  AL
Central  1. White Sox 2. Twins 3. Tigers 4. Royals 5. Indians
The White Sox's starting pitching is deep and very good and
their pen is one of the best in the game. Expect a full
powerhouse season from Carlos Quentin and a bounce-back from
Alex Rios.  AL West  1. Angels 2. Texas
