I think the players are DONE with spring training and ready to get rolling.

Another A.L. East crapshoot with the BoSox expected to be at the top of the heap if their pitching holds up. They had a good offseason. The Yankees seem to be a wildcard coming off a fairly strong close to last year once they moved on from their "legacy" roster.

The O's are expected to be in the basement of the East, but the "Showalter factor" seems to elevate them. Their rotation is a question mark and how they trim down the platoon of outfielders to the 25 man roster is going to be interesting. Expect the usual cycle of call-ups and send-downs to occur.

Good times.
