This is a very tough week because
so many teams are doing well but may not have much of a play in the playoffs; Angels, Nationals, Padres and Giants had very solid weeks and have
been messing with teams that are trying for the playoffs. The biggest change to the rankings this
time is 2 teams are missing. The Rangers and Rays have both had just terrible weeks and not just weeks but the Rangers have had such a terrible month
that I don’t think they’re making the playoffs this year. The Rays have managed to pick it up in
the last few days of the weeks but they’re close to missing the playoffs
too. The Royals and Indians are
making such strong pushes right now that one of these two has a strong chance
to make the playoffs knocking out the Rangers. The other thing that should be noted is
how strong the A’s look right now
and they’re primed to run away with the division.
Bottom
5:
26.
Chicago White Sox
27.
Chicago Cubs
28.
New York Mets
29.
Houston Astros
30.
Miami Marlins
Really no surprises here, though as
a personal note the Astros may be losing but have actually been one of the
better teams with RISP and the pitching has been pretty good. A good team is a few years away.
