Boston is now 6 games back of Tampa for the WC2 spot and their starting pitching looks terrible. Going to be tough for them to overcome that deficit as Cleveland has 3 weaklings to beat up on in their Division so I don't see them slipping. Oakland is notoriously a second half team. Tampa continues to hang in there despite some pitching injuries. Cleveland could pass Minnesota but like the tribe the twins have 3 opponents to tee off on. I don't see the Redsox passing 2 of these teams to get a shot at the Wild Card game.
The NL for currently has 8 teams within 6.5 of WC2 and thats without anyone setting much of a pace. Teams at 500 are 2.5 games back.
