            Future Hall of Fame-rs and 20 year veterans are being released, 10-time Gold- Glove-rs are fighting for Minor League contracts, and Alex Rodriguez said he’s sorry, so now you’re supposed to love him again, just as soon as all of these suddenly-appearing, pesky injuries quit plaguing him.

            However, with these new developments kicking off the 2009 season, it is obvious that it has leveled the playing field and new teams will rise out of the shadows.

            Your Division Winners: the Baltimore Orioles, the Kansas City Royals, and the Texas Rangers in the American League.

            In the National League: the Washington Nationals, the Pittsburgh Pirates, and the San Diego Padres.

            The Wild Card goes to both the Seattle Mariners and the Cincinnati Reds.

            The World Series lasts all 7 games, with the Pittsburgh Pirates defeating the Texas Rangers as former Ranger, A-Rod, receives the World Series MVP for his unprecedented, strenuous activity of making an apology.

 April Fools!
