Opening Day Predictions

AL East

1. Red Sox
2. Blue Jays (Toronto wins the Wild Card)
3. Yankees
4. Tampa Bay
5. Orioles

The Red Sox have the most balanced team in baseball and they will win the AL East this year. Toronto has a better team than most people realize and they will be this year's surprise team. Everything will go wrong in the Bronx this year but they will still remain the most talked about team in baseball (Cashman is replaced before the trading dead-line, major injuries decimate the starting rotation, Giambi and Sheffield struggle to play 100 games each, etc., etc.). Lou Pinella makes good on his promise not to have the Devil Rays finish last. Baltimore's starting pitching is awful and they finish last in the AL in team ERA and last in the East.
