t though, and reverts back to the pitcher he was in 2010, the Yankees could be real dangerous. OUTLOOK On paper the Yankees look like they could be better than they were last season. But, games aren't played on paper. If that was the case the Boston Red Sox would have made the playoffs last season and the Yankees wouldn't have lost a decisive game at home to Detroit in the ALDS. This is a team that at times last year looked real old. The pitching staff was overhauled and while Kuroda has looked

ng figure in the Rays lineup. Fans of the freakishly gifted 27-year-old center fielder will summon memories of the 2008 ALCS, when he was 9-for-28, hit four home runs, drove in 11, stole two bases and was a seven-game thorn in the side of the Boston Red Sox en route to the World Series trip. But for those waiting for a spectacular breakout since, well, it's been a maddening wait. Upton has hit just .241, .237 and .243 in three subsequent seasons, topping out at last season's 23 home runs and see

Fort Myers, FL (Sports Network) - Boston Red Sox relief pitcher Chris Carpenter will undergo surgery on Thursday. "Headed into surgery tomorrow with Dr [James] Andrews to remove a bone spur in my elbow," the righty wrote on his Twitter account. Carpenter was sent to Boston from Chicago in the offseason as compensation for the Cubs' hiring of former Red Sox general manager Theo Epstein. The 26-year-old Carpenter made his MLB debut with the Cubs in 2011, posting a 2.79 earned run average over 10

ef synopsis and a look at some of the teams which will try to stop the Tigers from unseating the Texas Rangers as this year's AL champion: CONTENDERS BOSTON: Take away their horrific start and one of the worst September collapses ever and the Boston Red Sox were the best team in baseball for the better part of four months. We now know the clubhouse was a mess, but this is a team with a boatload of talent, maybe the most in the league, and it's also clubhouse with a giant chip on its shoulder aft

year. Well this season it really applies, because this Cubs team is going nowhere and quite possibly could be the worst team in baseball. But their is hope. Why? Well because the team's biggest offseason acquisition came in the form of former Boston Red Sox general manager Theo Epstein, who earned everlasting fame as the man who put together World Series championship teams in 2004 and 2007 after the Red Sox had not won a title since 1918. Now Epstein takes on an even bigger challenge - making th

in Japan. The Rangers out-bid every team in Major League Baseball for the exclusive right to negotiate with Darvish, and only time will tell if that investment pays off any better than the last Japanese mega signing, Daisuke Matsuzaka of the Boston Red Sox. To further bolster its starting rotation, Texas made a gutsy move by moving closer Neftali Feliz into the rotation and signing former Twins' All-Star closer Joe Nathan to take his spot at the back end of the bullpen. Feliz saved 40 games in

Oakland opened the 2008 season in Japan against the Boston Red Sox, splitting a pair of games. "We're thrilled to be back in Japan," Oakland general manager Billy Beane said.

ld-card team in each league arguably benefits the Blue Jays more than any other team. When there was only one wild card in the AL, Toronto needed to finish no worse than second in the AL East - no small feat, with the big-spending Yankees and Boston Red Sox residing in the division. Let's face it, it's frustrating to be the Blue Jays. In 2010, they won 85 games and finished fourth in the AL East. In fact, they've ended up in fourth place in each of the last four seasons despite winning a minimum
