Inside this edition of Without a Curse, Alex talks about the bullpen arms that's occurring across the American League East. The Red Sox, Yankees and Blue Jays have all dramatically upgraded their pens this offseason, which signals a new point of emphasis for Major League teams.

Alex also discusses the Hall of Fame voting results and some of the questions that stem from this year's results, such as whether Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens are actually experiencing increased support.

Besides Hall of Fame voting, the other big piece of news in baseball last week was former Cardinals pro scouting director Chris Correa pleading guilty to charges stemming from his decision to hack into the Astros' computer software. Now the question is, will baseball pursue this case further?
