Baseball fans: It's a LOG JAM in the AL Central.
Twins just beat the Royals tonight 4-3 to take a half-game lead over them. But the ChiSox are leading Texas 7-3 late in the game, and I'm assuming they'll win. So here's what we got:

Chicago White Sox - 67-61 Games behind: 0 (Beat Texas tonite)
Minnesota Twins - 66-61 Games behind: .5 (Beat KC tonite)
Kansas City Royals - 65-61 Games behind: 1 (See above)

So, with this quagmire in the top three, who do you think will win the AL Central??

1. Chicago
Kansas City has the easist remaining schedule, but their pitching won't hold.

Minnesota has been way too up and down all year.

Chicago has those three guys at the top of their rotation and enough firepower in the lineup to win it.

2. The Sox Should
as they have the best startng pitching and the most potent offense.

But they are the White Sox, and I am sure they will find a way to tear my heart out, as usual...

4. The Tigers.
They're about 90-something and 30-something, aren't they? LOL.

Seriously, though, I say the Twins.

6. Well, I wouldn't think it too bad to be a Tigers fan right now...
...because your team plays baseball in an actual BALLPARK instead of a motorcross arena, like the Twinkies.

5. The Twins, of course.
The Royals just don't have the mojo. The Sox will implode. The Twins will settle down and get it done.
