In an article for Fox Sports, NY Post columnist Joel Sherman discussing how the American League is becoming far superior to the National League.
The AL has become a beast. The Yankees and the Red Sox were the trendsetters, but now many teams are following suit, building and building for what should be a race next year in which you very possibly can have 90-plus-win teams miss the playoffs.
At the end of the article, he provides some hot stove updates including mentioning that the Mets are not finalists for Japanese pitcher Hiroki Kuroda.
What Sherman says is so true, especially after the Tigers have acquired Miguel Cabrera. They are signing more free agents, trading for better players and have developed better farm systems than National League teams. Look at the Red Sox. They are filled with a World Series winning roster right now, but they have so many prospects that they can either let develop or use as trade pieces.
