The Texas Rangers are the best team in the AL not named the Blue Jays. Basically choosing to play them Instead of the wildcard team was pure idiocy on the Jays part. I think the Jays can beat them, but it's not a cake walk like I think the wildcard team would be.

How does a team whose been on fire for the past two months have no bearing on their playoff performance. That sounds pretty ridiculous to me.
