Baseball is nearing the end of its first month and there are few surprises thus far. The reason for this is simple, its just too early. It won't be until August until the real contenders are revealed. You can expect the Boston Red Sox, New York Yankees, Cleveland Indians, Detroit Tigers, New York Mets and Philadelphia Phillies all to be in contention come August 1. Right now, Baltimore, a team I picked to lose over 100 games, is in first place. Sorry. Aint happening O's.
Notes: There's a little concern in New York as Jorge Posada's season is in jeopardy due to what appears to be a tear in his shoulder. Alex Rodriguez twinked his Hammy last night and the Yankees will continue to have him take it easy for now. The Mets fans and Carlos Delgado have to straighten things out (NOT - this isn't a story folks, I mean who cares?). The Phillie bullpen looks solid so far. The Cards and Larussa are off to a solid start. The Joe Torre curse of starting out slow has reached LA. Barry Bonds isn't playing baseball (I guess he snuck out the backdoor). Other than these tidbits, there's really not much going on. I won't give credit to the phenom pitchers from Cincinnati or S.F. just yet. Let the hitters get the leg cramps fixed and their bats swinging before we tout anyone as another Doc Gooden. May May make many merry.
