I haven’t really seen them, at any point, as being the best team in the AL East so it’s hard for me to really envision them as a legit contender.

We swept the Braves anything can obviously happen. Yes Oakland and KC are bad teams but they’ve taken series against our rivals too. I think Tampa was the best team in the division but losing their best pitcher and their best hitter for the year takes a lot out of them. Baltimore is ofc good (and have a brighter future than us with their farm) but the difference on our record is really a lot about luck. Baltimore has had a lot of it and it’s not exactly a sustainable stat. I think next year and on Baltimore should be better provided their ownership doesn’t cheap out but this year I just have a hard time seeing them as that much better head to head than the Jays.
