Reality Sets In

Here's an easy way to confirm that the calendar has turned over from April to May - and you don't even need a calendar to do it. Just take a look at the baseball standings:


The Marlins are no longer in first.


The White Sox have resumed scoring solely via the solo home run and are no longer in first place.


And the surest sign of all that we're now in May is that the Devil Rays are presently closer to last place than first place.


Now it's confirmed that baseball season is really in full swing. It's still a lot of fun though. Hopefully some of my teams will start to play better and will keep things interesting through Labor Day.

Although, I suppose if the Sox don't start playing better, Ozzie and the White Sox coaching staff will make things colorful and interesting off the field.
