Steve Stone once again impressing me! I fail to see where any team in the divsion even competes? did any other team improve? Why the worry? Sox should win this division going away |

I don't think anybody really expected the Sox to "win this division going away" last year. They proved to be exactly who we thought they were. |

I always 'predict' them to win. I think I remember me saying 81 wins for the Sox and 86 for the Cubs with neither making the playoffs. |

I expect a season similar to the Giants last year. Winning, sometimes exciting but ultimately unrewarding. |

Sox should win this division going away If 91 victories mean "going away," then I'm with you. I see Dank and Floyds improving, especially with Peavy's presence. |

There are still moves to be made so it's way too early to make predictions but it looks like the Sox and Twins will be in a dogfight all season long. Hopefully the Twins will fade down the stretch from playing in the hot Minnesota sun all summer.

They also treated the ball as if it were a hand grenade in the field...but they have a total leg up on this Division with these starting pitchers. Williams is always active IN SEASON tweaking the roster. |

Now that CAN'Treras is gone and their starting pitching should do real well, I'm very optimistic. |

Twins very well could have improved, however the starting rotation in Minnesota is a big question mark. I think the Sox will win the division because of the pitching, however anything can happen. I do think Danks is going to have a massive year this year. |
