MLB Off Season Assessment

Here's a quick run down of the winners and losers this winter:
Winners-
Red Sox- Clearly adding two bats like Crawford and Gonzalez to an already star-studded lineup makes them instant title contender.
Phillies- Words can't even describe how scary this rotation is, and come October, the Phils will have an ace on the mound every game for them. The only caution mark will be if they all can stay healthy.
White Sox- I got to give my Sox some love, as they return Paul Konerko and add Dunn to the middle of the lineup, plus adding some bullpen help to keep up with the Twins and Tigers in the AL central.
Losers-
Angels- The Halos basically missed out on every big name they went after, from Crawford, to Lee and also Beltre.
Yankees- The need to acquire Cliff Lee after the Bo Sox got two, big lefties in their lineup was immense. Missing out on him leaves C.C. as the only line of defense for the Bronx.
