Yes. Duh.
Going into this season, your editor predicted the Boston Red Sox as AL Champs, but with the Angels’ acquisition of the artist formerly known as Paul Konerko’s switch-hitting twin it may be time to reconsider things. The Angels already had the most well-rounded team and the largest divisional lead in ALL OF BASEBALL without any available lumber. How scant was their offense? Four-and-a-third runs scored per game for almost exactly four surrendered night in and night out. Good thing, too; it’d be awful for the Twins to have a tough road waiting after the Central is thrown away by you-know-who.
