Drugs Ruin Everything

Yet again someone has come down with the drug bug. This time, it's Manny Ramirez. Yes, Manny was suspended for 50 games for violating the MLB's drug policy. The drug Manny had used has not been disclosed, but Manny says that is was a drug, not steroids, that his doctor had given to him on prescription. Unfortunately, that was an illegal substance in the MLB. So, the commissioner took quick action and immediately suspended Manny. Now, the up and coming Dodgers are forced to play without their star outfielder for a while.
There have been a few surprises so far this season. All the first place teams in the AL are shockers. The Blue Jays are on fire and have taken control of the AL East. Of course, the Red Sox are finding their stride and are just two games back, so the Blue Jays have to be watching their back. In the AL Central, the ROYALS, yes the Royals, are in first place. It certainly helps that they have a Cy Young caliber season coming from Zach Greinke, who can't seem to give teams a chance to score runs. Lastly, in the AL West, the Angels sit in 3rd place and the Rangers is the team standing in front. They lose a big reason they were solid last year in Milton Bradley, but they continue to win plenty of games and are in a position to fly to the playoffs. In the NL, though, it is pretty much going by the book. So, it's still early and unpredictable, but we may be seeing the top teams forming, despite some of them being extremely surprising.
