1. Mariners Paddle Along With Healthy Cano
Robinson Cano, or, as Derek Jeter always teased him, Robinson Canoe, always did have two things: a great smile and a beautiful swing.
Except, uh, last year, when both disappeared. And Canoe, er, Cano, was left up a creek without a paddle.
And so, too, were the Seattle Mariners.
"He makes a difference," says Seattle slugger Nelson Cruz, who knows.
Though the Mariners were swept in Texas over the weekend to drop three games back in the AL West and are going through a tough time right now with ace Felix Hernandez on the disabled list, Seattle nevertheless looks like it has staying power in the division this year.
