Rather than suggest the Jays' starters and having everyone else and his 
brother suggest every other team, why not get them out of the way right 
now?

Yanks:  Guidry (still a few excellent years left in that arm), Burns (good
        man), Niekros (do they really still have it in them?)
Jays:  Stieb (Cy Young time this year), Key (super young pitcher), 
       Alexander (similar to Guidry (except downgraded a bit)), Clancy
       (he'll stay off the injury list this year), and then choose
       from Filer, Steve Davis, Acker, and Leal. 
Orioles:  Flanagan, Boddicker, McGregor, and Storm Davis.  Boom or bust, here.
          Last year was a bust, can they turn it around?
Red Sox:  Clemens (good young talent but will he be healthy?), Boyd (fade-out
          or momentary lapse?), Nipper, Hurst.  Just average, I'd say.
Indians:  forget it
Brewers:  if Teddy Higuera has the sophomore jinx, forget about this staff
Angels:  who are going to be their starters?
White Sox:  why did they trade Burns away?  The Sox are going to be in
            trouble unless they have lady luck with them.
A's:  Walking Underwear joins a non-descript bunch.
Mariners:  prediction:  the M's will can their manager by the end of July 
           when their pitching collapses
Rangers:  Valentine will be using a revolving-door policy, here (or, at
          least, he should).

Royals:  good season last year could be too much to live up to.  Their 
         strength is their depth.
Tigers:  This may be the best rotation in baseball, due to the quality
         currently present and the depth.
Twins:  I feel that the claim made was unjustified.  The Twins have
        to prove their quality first.
