Predict the 3 AL Wild Card teams

[CrackerJack]

About 50 games left. Many teams in the mix. All bunched up. Who do you got grabbing the wild cards? (in order)

[Olerud363]

Baltimore, Seattle and Tampa Bay.

New York, Seattle and Toronto

I am pretty confident saying Seattle and Toronto (even though they haven't looked like it recently). The last spot is harder. The Rays are so injury ravaged. The Orioles are probably overachieving but actually have (potentially) difference making young talent starting to filter up, so I wouldn't rule them out. Cleveland is probably winning the Central, and I'm not buying the Twins or White Sox.

 

So I'll say Seattle, Toronto, and Baltimore, but I'm not as comfortable picking Baltimore as I am the other two.

I guess that you mean next level down in the standings, which means out of a WC spot? Hope I’m wrong.

If all the AL East teams continued their pace since July 3rd. Baltimore gets to 96 wins, New York to 91, and the Jays reach 86 wins. Yankees are in a rut, the O's are scorching hot and get to beat us up to 13 more times this year. I was trying to be slightly optimistic putting us there in 3rd but realistically it's probably Cleveland. Just a week ago people were saying well we're only 9.5 games back of the slumping Yankees, it could happen. Well the Yankees are still slumping, we've lost a half game in that span and red hot Baltimore is only 11.5 games back of New York. They might catch them by September the rate things are going. Yes that's an exaggeration, but by the end of the season it's not.

Toronto, Seattle, Tampa

Seattle, Tampa, Chicago

[Jaysareus]

Tampa Seattle and Orioles

Seattle, Tampa, Chicago

 

A lot of people have written off the White Sox. Yesterday I was saying to myself, I wouldn't forget about them. They're 61-56 and 1.0 GB of the Division and Wildcard. They've been playing better baseball lately, 7-3 in their last 10. They have a solid rotation (Cease, Kopech, Cueto, and Gialito) and a very good bullpen lead by one of the best closers in baseball. Their lineup has greatly underachieved, more than the Blue Jays. Losing Anderson is a blow, but they got Jimenez back.

 

I think they could still win the AL Central or even grab one of the Wildcard spots. I wouldn't count them out.
