Baseball is more competitive than I thought. I still feel that the AL east is the biggest beast of them all. I think the only team the jays didn't compete against in interleague was the rockies. But we played nearly everyone in the west. Nice scheduling Bud.

I certainly think that the East is the toughest, mainly because of the 3 at the top. Just had looked at the NL standings prior to your post and remembered how close it was in the West and how each team was having a really good year so the 50 wins number stood out in my mind.
