Part 2 of our extensive tour of the Hot Stove league looks at the AL Central and the AL West. In the Central, is Joe Mauer the “Greatest Albatross Contract” of all time (3:00)? After Sale, are the rest of the White Sox up for grabs (5:15)? Starting pitchers may be a thing of the past (17:45), and if it’s All for One Cleveland (24:50). In the West, when is there more than Trout (30:05)? The Astros as the team to watch (35:26), doing it for the King in Seattle (40:56), and every move is bigger in Texas (47:00).
