In my best Hawk imitation........."I love Black Jack"

But seriously, I agree with him totally. Of course I'm one of the more optimistic ones here.

What a mediocre division we have here, but hey, someone's gotta do it. Any one of these teams could win because all it takes is a few breakout players and a little luck to win 85-90 games. But my guess is that Ozzie Guillen's Chicago White Sox will get this division.

 

Sure, the Sox took the most significant losses this offseason, losing Bartolo Colon and Tom Gordon, but they should have walked away with the division last season. If you would have penciled in Esteban Loaiza for 21 victories prior to last season, they would have been runaway favorites. Colon's gone, but Loaiza remains along with Mark Buehrle and Jon Garland to front the rotation. Billy Koch still closes. Magglio Ordonez, Frank Thomas and Carlos Lee add the pop, and Joe Borchard remains a superstar in the rough who could make a huge impact soon.

 

All in all, Chicago should have enough to win this division. But it should have been enough last year.

I have a feeling Tampa might jump out of no where this season. Baldelli, Huff, Crawford, all becoming stars, and if they can get DECENT pitching, I think they will be a team not many teams will want to face.

O's in last?????
