[Mariners GM (A)]

Did anyone know what was happening here? The Royals are a contender, if nothing else, definite wild card player.

I was gonna say, they're my sleeper this year.

[Yankees GM (A)]

Thats funny, I was looking at his roster thinking the same thing and then I read the two comments above. Royals are frisky.

[Mariners GM (A)]

A decent projection from Reyes or Hampton get's Millwood out of the rotation, and if any of those Japanese RP's get a decent projection, I don't see many holes.
