Hi I'm Daryl Brock the American League -- was arguably the best division in baseball them all last decade as the Yankees and Red Sox commander would for. World Series -- to help us break down that division. For the coming year foxsports.com into baseball writer Ken Rosenthal can yankees kept the roster pretty much intact from last year. One big change though Johnny Damon out Curtis Granderson in -- may be a win for the Yankees coming New York a team that is the team to beat -- east.

Absolutely there would be granderson is one reason -- your basket is enough. You look at that rotation now baskets as the -- your floor and Phil Hughes is likely to number five. That is very deep as deep as it gets. The bullpen should be outstanding as well because they've got some -- there. -- granderson effectively replacing Johnny Damon Andy Johnson joining -- line out there aren't should be just as good if not even a little bit better. Granderson certainly helped the defense as well up. The one question you're gonna happen yankees is their daddy and the question we had with them last season. Does a year older Jeter era are headed right down the line. If they can do it last year you have to presume they could do it again it is however cancer because at some point all the players view either against her or decline.

On the heels of talking about the Yankees they get you have to talk about the Red Sox Boston as early one of the best rotations in all of baseball but the shortcoming -- to line up. Today have enough offense. To make too early to win the division but to make to the post season.

Very legitimate question and really the answer depends a lot on -- T. If they -- is the old David Ortiz -- include your dad certainly the Red Sox would be much more formal. When you look at their distance they'll trade Cameron those two guys that can be peace. It could -- there -- damage hit two home runs but they both will strike out. Overall pick up all the options probably are overstated. Well goes through will be another good addition to look out Pedroia Youkilis to the better hitters in the game. They're going to score some runs in his ego. Google final at bat the trade deadline.

At five as we saw the rays a couple of years ago new York and bought an even though they get they get all the pub they're not the only teams capable of winning a division. Tampa Baltimore Toronto any of them have a legit shot here at least in the post season.

The race certainly. When you look at some of the projection that computer simulations are doing for the season. With a projections that the teams internally are doing themselves. A lot of them either breeze at the nine. Certainly that would be good enough to make the playoffs in most divisions. In the -- that might only be good enough for them to get that are. The loss of J. P. Howell reluctant leader certainly hurts the rays you know how lot of financial play ability and this is kind of swan song for pistons. Especially with Carl Crawford and Carlos Pena in the final years of their contracts. We know that the race is going to reduce payroll next year we know that Carl Crawford and Carlos paying -- we will not be back. Global trade deadline at the -- far out of contention. But very few people expect that happened this is a pretty good club with a chance to be very cute couple things clicked.

All right candy always a pleasure thanks for the time and don't forget foxsports.com has you covered for all your -- Bonnie I'm Daryl Brock. -- lead off and fox Saturday baseball returns April. Coverage begins with -- this weekend.
