Seattle 60 48 .556 - (last ten games 6-4) two game losing streak
Detroit 61 49 .555 - (last ten games 1-9) - they are falling fast
NY Yankees 61 50 .550 .5 (last ten games 6-4) 3 game winning streak
Minnesota 57 53 .518 4 (last ten games 6-4) 2 game winning streak
Toronto 56 54 .509 5 (last ten games 6-4) 3 game winning streak
Bottom three teams are gaining big ground on the top two teams

How so? Looks to me like 4 of the 5 teams have the same record and the other team is fading fast. Baseball is a game where if you went 6-4 every 10 games you'd finish with about 97 wins and likely make the playoffs. So inorder to gain 5 games on a team thats going 5-5 every ten games you need to go on a tear of 15-5 just to catch them. Of the 3 teams who are basically in the Wild Card spot...I can only see one of them not playing 500 ball over a 20 game stretch. And I'll send you $50 via pay pal if the Jays are 15-5 in their next 20 games regardless of what the other teams do.
