Baseball Centrist is back after a mid-Summer slump

After a crazy seven weeks that has forced me to ready and then deliver a presentation at SABR in June; plan and host two family reunions; and a “relax” during a week-long family vacation, I am finally able to resume my duties here at Baseball Centrist.

Thank you all for bearing with me during my hiatus.

If anyone would like to contribute a short, but regular (ideally daily), synopsis of the news from of one of the division’s teams, then please drop me a line.

Glad to have you back!! Too bad the Sox blow...maybe your return will spark the Sox to get back on track.

Anthony, you might not know this, but the Twins are ####### awesome now!

Let's hope so, BLtDH.

They sure are, Will! Although they could sure use Soriano, now that they are without Shannon for a long, long stretch. I said a long time ago that if they could survive their April schedule then they'd be formidable. In May, it didn't look like they'd survived it. But it's a wonder what the promotion of Liriano to the rotation did for the team.

It's not the promotion of Liriano (although that helps, but only once every five days) as it is the removal of the three statues who stood on the left side of the field defensively.

Welcome back, Anthony!

Welcome back...you were missed....

Not to worry...the ChiSox are still the team to beat...though now it may be for the wildcard if not the division...

The bullpen has been beefed up, defense performing a little better, and continued great hitting...

Now, if Buehrle and the starting pitchers show up, we should be ok...
