Ray Finkle said:Agreed, like you said I'll believe it when I see it. Don't get me wrong I think the Jays are a very good team (in fact I actually think that they'll be in first place for the 1st half of the year ala the O's last year) but I don't think they're overall better than the Red Sox or Yankees.
Right, even last year when the Yankees were struggling I was hoping they wouldn't make a run but I knew it was gonna happen. It's not that the Jays don't have a chance it's just that everyone is used to seeing the Yankees and BoSox as the top two teams in East and even when they do struggle it's almost as if fans are just waiting for them to turn it around. The same thing goes for the A's and Braves of recently. The A's have become a great 2nd half team, and the Braves just find a way to be good enough to win the division but not good enough to win in the playoffs. I would love to see a postseason without the Yankees or Red Sox, but I wouldn't bet on it. Although I think only one of those teams will make it this year.
