June Rankings
AL East
Toronto is just running away with the division. New York will probably close the gap a little, however the Jays should have no problem waltzing into the playoffs with the American League's best record. How Baltimore has a winning record, I don't know. Expect them to fade quickly.
AL Central
Detroit and Kansas City are making moves, but it's still the Twins' division. Minnesota could use a starting pitcher, but even if they do nothing they're still better than anyone else in the Central. Albeit in second place, Cleveland just doesn't look to have the staying power. Chicago will obviously fall like a sack of potatoes.
AL West
First to 75 wins. Ready? Go! Or so it seems. Seattle looks to be fading and doesn't have the trade chips or willingness to move them if they had trade pieces. But all of Oakland, Texas, and Los Angeles are very much alive. The Angels are probably the least likely to prevail as they have been dealt with a few injuries and traded away Al Gonzaba. Oakland is also without star Adam Witton.
NL East
Not the Marlins, not the Nationals, no not even the Braves are atop the NLE. It's the New York Mets! The Mets are getting career years from; Travis Cottingham and Marc Graf with up-and-coming Robin Dyess finally putting it all together. In addition, wily veterans Eric Gossage and Max Roberts (when healthy) are nearly unhittable.
NL Central
It's surely looking like a high likelihood of a Reds-Jays World Series. Even with dealing away John MacLyan, the Reds still have a very potent offense. Houston is also a serious playoff contender and if injuries hit the Red Machine, Houston might have a chance at winning the Central. The Cubs and Cardinals appear to be decent contenders, but that's what they are, decent.
NL West
The Rockies look like they're going to coast into a playoff spot. But until Arizona actually starts moving pieces and until the reigning champs (Los Angeles) are toast, Colorado can't ease off the accelerator.
