The Salem Super Sequoias are enjoying a first place setting at the moment. The offensive youngsters are maturing. Defense is rather good. The pitching however has a ways to go. I seem to recall Shaggy Stratton playing for the St Louis Browns at one time. Hmm, that may have been well before everyones time here.
The Colorado Rockies are in second. I was kind of joking when I said the Rockies may not win more games at home than their Spring Training total wins. However, so far this season they haven't done it yet. The reason is pitching. Although the hitting at home has been good, the long ball hasn't materialized as expected, the pitching has been dismal. Defense has major holes at key positions.
The Vancouver Canadians has had a let down of late and find themselves in third. Defense is relatively strong but an injury has caused a bit of a problem. Hitting overall has been a bit of a let down. Pitching is actually better on paper than their performance so far, giving up way too many home runs. I still feel they have a team that can challenge for the division title.
The Arizona Diamondbacks are smoldering in the cellar. Defense is very porous. Pitching is actually better than their stats indicate thanks to the defense. Hitting has a few bright spots for the future.
