The Cleveland Indians hold the best record in baseball. Yes. It's true! This is NOT a movie script. Charlie Sheen has not revived his role {as 'the Wild Thing'} in Major League 9 or some such sequel. The Florida Marlins are also doing VERY WELL. The Kansas City Royals and the Pittsburgh Pirates are also in the top-half of baseball teams [currently] as it stands based upon standings and records.
Who could have guessed?
At the same time, the Boston Red Sox, while no longer holding the Worst Record in Baseball, still remain below .500 and do not seem to be consistantly pulling themselves out of their collective Funk.
Late May update: The Boston Red Sox have been one of the hotest teams in MLB since the first week of May. At present they are in 2nd place in the AL East [about half a game] behind the dredded NY Yankees!
May 25th, 2011: Update: Jon Lester coasted to his AL-leading seventh win and the Boston Red Sox bludgeoned Cleveland's Mitch Talbot for seven runs in the first inning on their way to a 14-2 win today that was the Indians' most lopsided loss this season. The Cleveland Indians are still close to the best team in Baseball [at present] according to their over-all record, but, BOY, how the tables have turned! The Boys from Boston took 2 out of 3 from the Sons of Geronimo this week, and really should have taken all 3 games.
