Mets never really had a closer to start the season with.

They didn't plan on having a lead after the first!

Tigers blew a 5-2 lead against the White Sox. Smyly stuggled for the first time. I hope he bounces back. He's been huge so far. Fielder broke out of his slump too it seems. Still not smashing but hitting at least.

They are so frustrating. The Tigers left 13 on base. I don't know the official stats but they MUST be leading the league in total LOB for this season. They were 3 for 17 with RISP!!

Mets have done a nice job so far.
They are a very scrappy team.

I really thought they would run away with that division.
There are a lot of surprises in the league if you you look at the standings.

On the positive side:

Dodgers: let's see how they do without Kemp
B'more: Just a matter of time but Buck has done a good job here
Cleveland : Lowe looks like he turned back the clock.
Cards: Albert who?

On the negative side

Boston: I thought they would take a step back, not fall of a cliff
Phills: With Utley and Howard out they couldn't hit, but I expected them to pitch. They haven't!
Reds: Decent enough, but I expected them to run away with the division
Miami: Playing better now
Angels: There are no words!

Good start to the Sox and Tribe game

Viciedo reminds me a lot of the Big Hurt..
