MLBDepthCharts.com's April All-Stars (AL)

Not too many surprises in the AL thru the month of April. The Rays were the best team in the league with the Twins and Yankees right behind them. The biggest disappointment might be the Red Sox, with the White Sox right there with them. The A's are among the teams that have played above expectations but injuries are already starting to affect them and the Blue Jays were off to a quick start but will have a tough time keeping up in a very tough division. As far as the individual performances, Alex Gonzalez of the Blue Jays might be the biggest surprise as he cracked the starting lineup on MLBDepthCharts.coms's April All-Star team.
