Now, I'm not a big Baseball fan...however, it's hard not to get excited about this years Blue Jays! Young and VERY talented! Maybe the best line-up in the AL?! Stats say so at least! IF the pitching can stay "consistent", I think we have a special team on our hands. Of course, the Yankees may argue about the best line-up in the AL. All this, and Eric Hinski has struggled, and has just started to hit the ball like he did last year! We are only 5.5. games out of 1st! That after a bad start, due to having a VERY tough schedule in the 1st month. Were we not over 10 games out, a few weeks ago I'm not saying that we'll win the Division, but a Wild-Card spot I have hopes for. After that, ANYTHING can happen. Look at who won the world series last year ;D Red Sox - They'll choke again...2nd half of the season! Yankees - Have played below .500 ball since the 1st month. Their starting pitching is old, and will only get more injured throughout the year. Unlike Quinn, J.P. WILL make some moves, if it will help the team. 1 legit. #2 Starting Pitcher, and NO team would want to face the Blue Jays in the playoffs! Who here thinks we have a shot at the playoffs?

As much of a chance as the Dodgers in the NL. ;D A few days ago, the Giants were 8 games ahead of the Dodgers. BOOO!! I HATE THE GIANTS! But the Giants went on an 8 game losing streak so now the Dodgers are only 3 1/2 games behind the Giants. ;D The last 2 seasons the Dodgers were hot until All Star Break and then they went downhill (2 years ago it was because all their starters were on the Disabled List). This year they aren't hot right now, so I'm hoping after the All Star Break the Dodgers give the Giants a run for their money.

As long as the Red Sox do not win anything or make the playoffs I am happy no matter what!!! LOL!! That's how I feel about the SF Giants. I LOVE it when they lose. I actually say out loud, "Good!! The Giants lost again!!" and I get a big smile on my face. I actually cheered when the Angels beat them in the World Series. ;D I feel practically the same amount of distaste for the Braves, but the Giants are and always will be at the top of the list. I hope they never win a World Series again. I would be happy if they never won the division again. How is that for hating a team.
