...who cares if not all the teams played....

#1  AFV most improved team since draft day. Who expected this team to get
Weaver AND Kinsler AND unload Berkman in Cano deal, then turn around and
land a closer? Now will attempt to finish in money with less than 23 active
players. What chutzpah!

#2  Sabathia looks old. Thank goodness for Berliners that the team's
pitching staff includes Moore, Peavy, Scherzer and Blanton.  Nukes dropped
this bomb at optimal time.

#3   Verlander still the real deal. But even with a rock hard Wieters, Red
Hots will scuffle for run production. This team *has* to make another move,
and soon, even if it's just to bug Winick.

#4   Daddies dream Weaver becomes nightmare. SP looks a heckuvalot
different w/o Weaver, even with Cano at MI instead of Kinsler. Can Maurer
and/or Harell restore this team to preseason's prediction of greatness?
Jeffrey, get thee to the rotolab and advise.

#5   AYM knew Coke is the real thing. One dollar closer. Nice.

#6   Healthy Ellsbury huge for LMC. This team has health risks, sure, but
if they can replace Carp and Pena, big things will happen, i.e., knock
Berliners down a notch.

#7  Chris Sale is real good. But Rips still need another SP or two,
somehow, some way.

#8  Bud Norris deal will make or break the Flaming Brats. Sure, he's a
Winick pan, but Brats don't get burned easily.

#9  Flowers blooming for Nukes. A lotta undervalued production coming out
of the C slot for Nukes--now and next year.

#10  Sabathia. Old.
