Quarter of the way thru the season, and not much separating teams. Oakland and Detroit are early leaders in the AL and than a glut of teams that are pretty close to each other. NL isn't much different, San Fran, Milwaukee, Atlanta leading their divisions. Really there is as much or more parity in MLB as there is in the NHL since there are no three point games to make the standings seem closer. There are 5 teams playing really badly, 5 teams ahead of the group, and about 20 hanging out around 500. I think a luxury tax with some teeth does work.
