Yes, and the standings reflect what that means over a 162 game schedule. But an offense that includes Altuve, Correa, Springer, Gomez, and a red hot Chris Carter is capable of out gunning any team in the league over a short stretch. And they're supported by a very good pen, a bona fide ace, and Kazmir, McCullers, and McHugh.
I don't think they're getting enough credit. Darkhorse WS candidate IMO.
