Six openings this time around:
1) AL North - Last season's Madison team. Inconsistent recent history. Been kicked around like a shelter dog. Nine different owners in the past twelve seasons. Bit of a restoration project. Will have the sixth pick in next season's draft.
2) AL East (1) - Last season's Hartford team. 37-season owner. Well-cared for team, but fell to 78-84 last season. Good foundation for success.
3) AL East (2) - Last season's New York team. Another one that's been kicked around a bit. Had a recent seven-season stretch of a different owner every season. Then two over the past five seasons. An improving team with some talent in the farm system. 51, 66, 73 wins in each of the past three seasons.
4) AL East (3) - Last season's Huntington team. Solid team coming off five straight playoff appearances, one WS (lost) and average 94 wins in those five seasons.
5) AL East (4) - Last season's Boston team. A stuck in the middle team. 75-85-83 wins the last three seasons.
6) AL West - Last season's Vancouver team. Ready for a rebuild. Fell to 56 wins last season after many seasons of success. Has the #1 pick in next season's draft.
