eet goss, Canadian skiers sweep

WHITEFISH, Mont. (CP) —
Canadians swept top hofhors on the
final day of individual races at the
North American try ski

championships. After winning the 10-
kilometre classic by more than a
minute ‘Thuredey; he won Saturday's

championships Saturday.

For gold medallists Al Pilcher of
Orangeville, Ont., and Lorna
Sasseville of Ottawa, was a bright
finish to a season that began slowly.

Sasseville, who was unhappy with
her international results this year,
won three Canada Cup events. But
Saturday’s victory was her first of the
season in a free-tedhnique event.

The snow conditions warmed up
during the second half
of the senior women’s 16-kilometre
race, but Sasseville led from start to
finish, posting a winning time of 57
minutes 37.5 seconds. American Bet-
sy Youngman of Newbury, Ohio, was
second in 58:04.2, and Jane Vincent
of Dawson City, who won three
Canada Cup races, was third in
59:24.4,

Pilcher made it two convincing vii
tories in a row at the North American

“IT felt good, felt strong and had

one hour 32 minutes 38.8 seconds. ‘‘I

2 , team to
“OR ia beat

The American League East is widely regarded as
the weakest in baseball, there for the taking by. any
team that puts on a reasonable surge.

Last year Toronto went 20-9 in August and that
was enough to pass upstart Baltimore. Perhaps only in
the AL East a team rise from worst to first, as the
Orioles threatened last yee when everybody else was
hovering at or below

1. TORONTO E BLUI UEJAYS

1989 record: 89-73, Ist place

It’s the old ‘if? syndrome. If Fred McGriff’s Sep-
tember swoon was an aberration; if Mike Flanagan has
another year left in his left arm; if Jimmy Key can
recover from shoulder surgery; if right-hander Todd
Stottlemyre can put it all together for a full season; if
right fielder Junior Felix can recapture the magic that
made him the AL’s hottest rookie in June and July,
and if either Pat Borders or Greg Myers can justify the
trading of Whitt. . .

2. BOSTON RED SOX

1989 record: 83-79, 3rd place

All the Sox need is another starting pitcher or two
and someone to replace the 108 RBIs provided by the
departed Nick Esasky.

Expos
along
expos shot

Their estimated sale value is between $80 million
and $100 million.

But on the field, the Montreal Expos belong on a
Misfortune 500 list: they have played .500 baseball in
each of the last two National League seasons. When
they were heralded as the team of the '80s at the start
of the decade, no one expected this to mean 81-81.

In 1990, even achieving that level may be elusive
for the Expos, who have lost three starting pitchers
and outfielder Hubie Brooks to free agency.

NEW YORK METS.

1989 record: 87-75, 2nd place

The Mets are the only team in baseball on which
any member of the six-man starting rotation might win
the Cy Young Award. Gooden and Frank Viola
already have, and David Cone came close in 1988,
while Sid Fernandez yielded only 157 hits in 219 in-
nings. And Ron Darling and Bob Ojeda always give
the impression they could win 20 games. ~

2. ST. LOUIS CARDINALS

1989 record: 86-76, 3rd place

AL East is weak sister
in baseball family

3. MILWAUKEE BREWERS

1989 record: 81-81, 4th place .

The most brittle of an injury-prone team has
already fallen. Leadoff hitter Paul Molitor (.315) is
out for a month with a broken hand.

Dave Parker signed on as DH and Don Baylon
arrives as the new hitting coach.

4. BALTIMORE ORIOLES

1989 record: 87-75, 2nd place

The best defensive team in the league, the Orioles
are hoping rookie Ben McDonald lends credibility to a
weak starting rotation. The Orioles had a find in Gregg
Olson last year, a rookie closer (1.69 ERA, 27 saves)
with a mean curve ball.

5. CLEVELAND INDIANS

1989 record: 73-89, 6th place

It’s hard to imagine hardline manager John Mc-
Namara sparking this club. The starting pitching, led
by Tom.Candiotti and Greg Swindell, is strong and
balanced and the bullpen has a legitimate closer in
Doug Jones (32:saves, 2.34 ERA).

6. DETROIT TIGERS

1989 record: 59-103, 7th

Their offence might improve significantly with the
signing of three free agents — DH Cecil Fieldedr, third
baseman Tony Phillips and Moseby.

7. NEW YORK YANKEES

1989 record: 74-87, Sth

Believe it or lot, the Yankees used 16 starting pit-
chers last season and they compiled a ghastly 4.87
ERA. Pascual Perez, from Montreal, and Tim Leary,
from Los Angeles, signed aboard.

Strawberry and co. could
be sweet in NL East

Seldom is a team managed by Whitey Herzog out
of contention.

The best-case scenario for Herzog this year would
be for Danny Cox, Greg Matthews and John Tudor to
all fully rebound from elbow injuries. But don’t expect
the Cardinals to go 3-for-3 in this regard.

3. CHICAGO CUBS

1989 record: 93-69, Ist place

Last year, the Boys of Zimmer produced unexpec-
ted results even when manager Don Zimmer made low-
percentage managerial moves. The charmed life isn't
likely to continue.

4. MONTREAL EXPOS

1989 record: 81-8, 4th place

Manager Buck Rodgers figures his club has to
tread water through the first quarter of the season, but
should markedly improve when younger players he
hopes to work into the lineup start to assert them-
selves.

5. PITTSBURGH PIRATES

1989 record: 74-88, Sth place

The Pirates’ outfield — Bobby Bonilla, Andy Van
Slyke and Barry Bonds — commands respect, which is
more than can be said for the rest of the team offen-
sively.

6. PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES

1989 record: 67-95, 6th place

The Phillies probably lead the majors in players
with short surnames. Herr. Thon. Hayes, Hayes,
Kruk, Lake, Combs. Cook. Jones, Ford.
