The A's and the O's are clearly the class of the AL right now.

And are you trying to get me to buy the first round or something?  Because I can be bought with hope and pleasantries…

nice try, but this

meanwhile, albert pujols returning to old form at the plate and mike trout, continuing to be the best player in baseball.  LAA is gonna win that division.

i'm betting OAK is playing a 1-game playoff vs. baltimore or NYY.  

was a reverse jinx of your reverse jinx

You're betting on the Yankees?  Making the playoffs?  Seriously? 

So who do you have winning the East?  Everyone seems to be checking out at this point except for Toronto and the Orioles.

i think toronto wins the division and BAL or NYY take the wild card.

do i really think NYY catches the wild card? not really. but for whatever reason they are only 3 games out of the wild card right now, and it's not like the AL east is going to be beating each other up like the central or the west….

it's kind of like his time with the red sox was spring training, and tomorrow will be opening day of the regular season for him!

George is rolling in his grave… the Yankees have become a team to be scorned…

Are you kidding me?  No hitter with 2 outs in the fifth and he gets hurt? 

Hours after the trade deadline?

FML

Miller to Orioles now, per Buster Olney.

I like it.  Starting pitching has improved dramatically lately.  And Miller is much more than just a match-up lefty.  Miller/O'Day/Britton to end games could become habit forming. 

KLaw: "the Red Sox acquiring lefty Eduardo Rodriguez from the Orioles for two months of left-handed reliever Andrew Miller was the best value move of the day – a great return for Boston, and the deal with the best minor league prospect moved over the course of the whole day. "

this is just the best

I can't believe he did that 2 nights in a row.  Wednesday's game was just great!  Sad they couldn't sweep, but some really great baseball being played lately.

To the same batter!  Pujols face was priceless….

Your new reliever at AAA Norfolk - Joe Saunders!

ANOTHER LEFTY?

Next man up - Jim Johnson.

But not with the Orioles, apparently.
