My American League Picks

I know that it's too early and more deals are being done, but I'll make my up-to-date picks for the American League anyway.

A.L East will go to the defending champs, the Boston Red Sox. In my eyes, the Red Sox are loaded. From their lineup to their pitching, the Red Sox will dominate the A.L East.

A.L Central is a tough call. Everyone from the Tigers to the Royals made significant moves, but I have to pick the Tigers because they were able to acquire Cabrera and Willis. With two young pitchers in Verlander and Willis, the Tigers are an easy pick.

In A.L West, I believe the Angels, even without Orlando Cabrera, should still be a good team.

For the wild card, let's face it--the Yankees always make the playoffs. When I think they're out, the trade deadline comes and they make the move needed to make the playoffs.

Join me next time when I make my National League picks and update the American League picks when big moves are made. So PLAY BALL!
