If the Nats and Bucs make the playoffs... we need to petition a switch to the NL.
(Or suck it up and be a man and play in the AL East)

Actually when the Brewers moved the NL, the Jays (along with every other AL) were presented with the opportunity to switch divisions instead. I suspect the revenue generated by Yankees/Red Sox matches up was too much to give up by the ownership.

the Astros have had some horrific years lately but have no farm system, how'd that happen? and now they're going to get buried for the foreseeable future in the AL West.
at least we aren't the Astros!

Astros are starting to turn the corner. Ed Wade started to do the rebuild, but Jeff Lunhow was brought in from the Cards organization, and has added some intriguing pieces to their farm system as well as having a strong draft this year.
