So, who here is going to do better, worse, or stay the same over their next 30 games?
The Astros will probably do better. The A’s will probably do worse.
I note it’s interesting that while the Yanks went 15-15, the Angels went 16-14, and the Rangers also went 15-15, and both moved aggressively to shore up weaknesses….to try and hold off the A’s?
Nobody in the AL East made a big move to add someone. The Sox added a good lefty reliever in exchange for a good righty reliever, and got their injured guys back. The Jays added a decent pitcher in Brad Lincoln. The O’s did very little, as did the Rays. And the Yanks picked up two decent supplementary pieces, nothing special, but both addressed roster needs.
