After trumpeting their great change in team culture and their new attention to detail and smart baseball, the Toronto Jays played as stupidly as they did last year, with spectacular brain jams and poor decisions over a split 4 game series. Both teams, Toronto and Tampa, looked like they were weaker compared to last season. The AL east is still a battle, but I think there is some separation developing. Baltimore is excellent looking, then it begins to fall off. The evil Yankees are injury riddled, Tampa as well, and Toronto and Boston don't look that good this year.
You have to wonder if the supply of disposable human elbows is drying up, and if guys are going to have to learn to pitch again. The injury rates among successful pitchers are really high. You can only spin it so much, and only throw so hard.
