Jays have enough talent
to bring Series to Toronto
Open 9:30-5:30 M-F
9:30-4:30 Sat.
From' the Associated Press
This is it. Either the Toronto Blue
Jays win the American League East
and stampede into the World Series
this year, or they’re not going to do it
for a long time.
It won’t be easy because the AL
East is loaded.
If anyone suspected the strongest
division in baseball was weakening
and the AL West was catching up —
forget it.
There may be more impressive
young players coming up in the
West, but for now and a lot longer
the killer teams are set in the East.
Toronto is at a crossroads. One
trail leads to success this year and
more in the future; the other way
goes down the path of problems.
Montreal and Texas reached the
same point in the last 10 years, and
neither went the right direction.
The Blue Jays also must overcome
the commotion George Bell is caus
ing this spring and the effects of los
ing their final seven games and
blowing the division title to Detroit
last year.
The Yankees re-armed them
selves, Milwaukee and Boston are
young and on the rise and Sparky
Anderson always finds the people to
win with the Tigers.
Look for the Blue Jays to bring
the first World Series to Canada this
chilly October or expect a long
freeze in Toronto.
Toronto Blue Jays
The Blue Jays can hit, pitch and
field. So why don’t they win it all?
Because trouble, along with talent,
keeps finding Toronto.
MVP Bell hit 47 home runs with
134 RBI, the fourth straight season
his power numbers have increased.
So did his salary: a new $5.9 million,
three-year contract. But he’s un
happy with being moved from left
field to designated hitter, so much so
the team suspended for a day in the
spring and talked about trading him.
The Blue Jays wanted to save da
ily wear-and-tear on Bell and make
room for young outfielders Rob Du-
cey (.284, 10 HR, 60 RBI in 100
games at Class AAA Syracuse) and
Sil Campusano (14 HR, 63 RBI, 26
stolen bases in Triple-A). But if Bell
sulks and stays, he could disrupt the
entire team.
Lloyd Moseby (.282, 26 HR, 96
RBI, 39 SB) is being moved from
center field to left and is upset.
Even-tempered Jesse Barfield (28
HR, 84 RBI) remains one of the
game’s best right fielders. Shortstop
Tony Fernandez (.322, 67 RBI, 32
RBI) is recovered from an injury on
Bill Madlock’s slide that finished him
and the Blue Jays. Ranee Mulliniks
(.310) is steady at third.
Toronto again led the league in
pitching, bolstered by its bullpen.
Jimmy Key (17-8) allowed three or
fewer earned runs in 30 of his 36
starts and topped the AL with a 2.76
ERA. Consistent Jim Clancy (15-11)
and improving John Cerutti (11-4)
did well and former ace Dave Stieb
(13-9) showed flashes of his form.
Tom Henke (34 saves, 2.49 ERA)
is a premier reliever, despite his 0-6
record. Righty Mark Eichhorn (10-6,
3.17 ERA) and lefties Jeff Mussel-
man (12-5) and Dave Wells provide
depth.
Still, this team has holes and ques
tion marks.
Can catcher Ernie Whitt (19 HR)
keep producing at age 35? Will
Manny Lee — who filled in for Fer
nandez and lost a key game to De
troit by letting Alan Trammell’s
grounder go through his legs — and
Nelson Liriano become good in
fielders? What about first base, a po
sition that needs production?
New York Yankees
Everyone knows Billy Martin is
back and Jack Clark is on the attack.
Do people also know Rich Dotson,
John Candelaria, Don Slaught, Lee
Cuetterman, Jose Cruz and Rafael
Santana have joined the Yankees?
New York has not won the divi
sion since 1981 and owner George
Steinbrenner is getting real impa
tient, especially after finishing
fourth last season.
Steinbrenner hopes for instant re
sults with Martin, rehired to manage
for the fifth time when Lou Piniella
was kicked upstairs to general man
ager. A pool already is started on
how long Martin will last.
Steinbrenner also resumed his
free-spending ways by signing Clark
to a rich free-agent contract. Clark
(35 HR, 106 RBI, 136 walks) may
take advantage of the shortened
right-center field fence at Yankee
Stadium. But he’s got a past filled
with injuries and will start the season
in character and out of action with a
torn calf muscle.
The Yankees’ biggest need was
pitching. They spent most of their
money on Clark, but traded for Dot-
son (1 1-12 with the White Sox), Can
delaria and Cuetterman. Rick Rho
den (16-10) produced as promised
and Tommy John (13-6) continues
to amaze at 44. Dave Righetti
spurned Japan and is the bullpen
(31 saves).
Don Mattingly (.327, 30 HR, 115
RBI, AL-record six grand slams) is
great. His numbers for his first four
seasons are better than Lou Geh
rig’s. Rickey Henderson (.291, 17
HR, 41 SB) was slowed by a ham
string and did not lead the league in
steals for the first time since 1979.
Dave Winfield (27 HR, 97 RBI) and
Mike Pagliarulo (32 HR, 87 RBI)
fuel a powerful offense.
Santana, the first major leaguer
traded between the Yankees and
Mets, was obtained to play shortstop.
Milwaukee Brewers
Milwaukee won its first 13 games
last year, then lost 12 in a row and
spent the season streaking — the
only team to win 12 or more straight
and drop 12 or more in the same
season.
The Brewers finished third with
91 victories and are going the right
direction with a nice blend of expe
rience and youth.
Paul Molitor (.353) hit in 39
straight games, the seventh-longest
string since 1900. He’ll play second
base this season and Jim Gantner has
moved to third. Robin Yount, now in
his 14th season at age 32, batted .312
with 21 homers and 103 RBI.
mara wants him to DH. Ricesai
aching knees are fine and vaj
stay in left field; Rice,
Yastrzemski and Ted William
the only players to hold don
position at Fenway Park sinj

Dwight Evans, 36, enjoys
finest season at .305, 34 hoi
123 RBI and again drew mort
100 walks. His only problem
justing to first base; the Gold
outfielder says popups look
from the infield.

Shortstop Dake Sveum (25 HR, 95
RBI) and Rob Deer (28 HR) are low-
average, big power guys. Rookie DH
Joey Meyer (29 HR, 92 RBI at Class
AAA Denver) could join them. Bill
Schroeder (.332, 14 HR) and B.J.
Surhoff (.299) give the Brewers an
offensive catching platoon.
As usual, pitching will determine
how well this team does. Fed Hi-
guera (18-10) and Juan Nieves (14-8
with 1988’s only no-hitter) are sure
starters; Bill Wegman (12-11) and
Chris Bosio (11-8) are expected to
help. Dan Plesac (23 saves, 2.61
ERA) may be the best reliever that
no one knows.
Detroit Tigers
Hard to believe a team whose
opening day lineup included Or
lando Mercado, Terry Harper and
Mike Heath in right field topped the
majors with 98 victories.
Detroit scored 896 runs, more
than anyone else. It did it after los
ing Lance Parrish to free agency and
will have to do it again minus Kirk
Gibson (24 HR, 79 RBI).
Alan Trammell (.343, 28 HR, 105
RBI) carried the Tigers and should
have carried the MVP voting, some
say.
Darrell Evans (34 HR, 99 RBI) be
came the only 40-year-old to hit 30
homers; instead, most people only
remember he got picked off third
base in the playoffs.
Rookie Matt Nokes was a major
plus, hitting 32 homers with 87 RBI,
mostly against righties.
Ray Knight (14 HR, 65 RBI with
Baltimore) could end Detroit’s
search for a third baseman. Lou
Whitaker slumped to .265 and
should rebound.
Jack Morris (18-11) is the biggest
winner this decade. Walt Terrell (17-
10) continues to win at T iger Sta
dium and struggle on the road.
Frank Tanana (15-10) was consistent
and Doyle Alexander, acquired late
in the season, wnet 9-0 and pushed
the Tigers over the top. Rookie Mike
Henneman (11-3, 2.98 ERA)
emerged as the stopper with Willie
Hernandez near the end.
Boston Red Sox
Lee Smith and other new names
join Wade Boggs, Roger Clemens
and Jim Rice as Boston regroups af
ter another season of frustration.
The Red Sox, within one strike in
1986 of winning its first World Se
ries since 1918, never found the
groove and finished fifth at 78-84.
They sagged despite the success of
Boggs and Clemens.
Boggs hit .363, won his fourth
batting title and became the fifth
player to get 200 or more hits in five
straight years. Clemens, a spring
training holdout, overcame a 3-4
start and went 20-9 to win his second
consecutive Cy Young; no one has
won it three straight times.
