Obviously A-Rod is an incredible player, so obviously wouldn't necessarily be better without him....however I think when you have a dominant player, some of the role players are waiting for him to step up. With him gone, the role players realize that if it's going to be done, it's up to them.
Blaylock is maturing.....Soriano is contributing. They may not win the West (Anaheim representing quite well), but they're going to be fun to watch this summer......
....if the pitching holds.....
