On Friday, the Angels took over the yellow jersey in the AL West from the Athletics. But they wore it for just a day as Oakland reclaimed it with a win Saturday while the Halos lost.
Meanwhile, the checkerboard jersey of the wild card was in the Bronx for two days, but now it's back in Chicago. The Twins have dropped two straight to the Tigers and have fallen back in the peloton.
As for the NL, it's quiet. The only race right now is in the NL West and I hear that the DBacks are waiting for a time trial to make their move since they haven't done as well on hills since Jason Grimsley "retired." The Reds are making a few attempts to catch the Cardinals, but they seem half-hearted. The Mets are just doing tricks on their bike now in a vain attempt to get Mom to look at them.
Way uphill.
