What's amazing about the Sox is that with all the injuries, the subs are stepping up. Big time. Now that's a quality of a winner: great depth.

And that reflects good scouting, minor league system, and a savvy gm

Don't give the GM any cred. The current one just walked in and picked up where Theo left off.

We'll see what this GM can do next off season.

Well The Yankees loss Mariano for the whole season, and has about 3 or 4 regular players in the disable list, plus 1 or 2 others they lost for the whole year before the season even started.

So scrapping here and there they have manage to stay alive in the AL East for now.
I don't think the O's or Blue Jays are going to do anything but have to watch Tampa Bay.

The orioles' slide is partially due to injury. Sad to say, if the Orioles are to pick up steam again, it's going to depend largely on Britton and Roberts hitting peak form and getting back into the rotation/lineup soon.

I wish the O's had the depth of the Yanks or Sox, but we have to try and catch lightning in a bottle.

Don't get me wrong, they are playing pretty good.

Tradition and history help some ... but they have a huge payroll as well. :tup:
