Looks like the American League races are heating up - take a look at the current standings:

Six weeks ago, it looked like the wild card was definitely coming out of the central division - now that's up in the air. It also looked like Boston was starting to pull away, but that's no longer happening - the Yanks have been coming back strong (thanks to some decent pitching). If Matsui and Sheffield come back in late August/early September as expected, the end of the season will be a fun thing to watch.
