The AL is overrated this year. Chicago and Minnesota play a bunch of nobodays and pad their record beating up on KC, Cleve, and Detroit. I think both teams are soft and Minnesota never wins in the playoffs even when they are in cushy positions to put teams away. Chicago I don't think is very good I don't care what their record is.
Baltimore is dying. NY hasn't woke up yet and may not all year. Boston is good, but not great. Not as good as last year and their starting pitching is questionable.
Ignoring records and just who is the best.........I think LAA and Texas are the 2 best teams in the AL right now. Boston right there with them. And more times than not in baseball the best teams end up winning as home field, wild card, and that stuff has no meaning on anything when all is said and done.
And Escobar blows in a big spot he stinks. Dont bank on him.
