y they are tied for it. The Chicago Cubs are a superior team across the board. The Brewers have Braun, Sabbathia, Fielder, Sheets and Hardy, after that it gets murky and to have this kind of success I think should be rewarded. I recognize the success of the Mets post the firing of Randolph. But, that wasn't a month prior to the playoffs. Yost hasn't been blowing the lead, striking out looking or getting in scuffles with fellow players. When players don't perform the media is finds a scape goat. Who more often than not is the manager. To say that the Tigers need to fire Leyland after a horrendous year is justified. I would ask questions about Sheffield, the bullpen and Dombrowski.
