Feels like every time I see Kimbrel, he's trash.

There is a Red Sox & Yankees mystique. These teams always will themselves to a win, something about those uniforms. This race will go down to the last day.

[Man Bear Pig]

Love seeing the Red Sox lose.

Crazy that the Red Sox are now in that category. When I was a kid the BoSox were known as the team who’d always will themselves to lose lol

 

[Cloned]

White Sox walk it off

 

[djdev]

redsox lose, seattle and oak losing as well. cmonnnnnn mets

 

[TopChedder]

SOX LOSE!

 

[Del Preston]

[Cloned]

Seattle plays Boston next. Interesting who to cheer for there.

 

[TGB]

Now let's sweep the Rays in the next two series and TAKE THE DIVISION!

...meh, I wish.

2 of 3 for Seattle would be ideal. Don’t want either to sweep.

 

[LeafsOHLRangers98]

Has a division ever had 4 90 win teams? I remember a few times where there were 3 but I can't ever recall a division having that many.

 

[canucksfan]

Red Sox have a fairly easy schedule from here on out.

I feel like every year this is the AL East.

The closest the AL East has ever come in 2008 when the Jays were 4th with 86 wins. They came 4th 2 years later with 85 wins as well.

I understand that, I just meant that this division is ridiculous. Most years you have 3 or 4 teams competing, some years it can 5. It's been the most competitive division in baseball for decades.

I’ll take a Seattle sweep. Would be great to host Seattle in the WC game rather than Boston, New York or the A’s.

Perhaps I should have replied to the initial question instead of you. I was piggybacking off your AL East response to say it's never happened in the AL East, and thus probably hasn't happened since the AL East usually ends up the toughest.

I found the best records to miss in the WC era which went down as far as 92 wins and didn't include a team missing out as 4th in their division but that doesn't conclude that a team who has 91 or 90 didn't miss in that way.

The Jays are all the rage on Sunday Night Baseball Countdown right now.

 

[barilko05]

Red Sox have a fairly easy schedule from here on out.

So do we. Other than the 6 against Tampa, we've got 7 against Minnesota, 3 against Baltimore, and 3 against the currently struggling Yankees. I think if we can split against Tampa, and win the other series out right, we're in. That would be at least 11-8 for 91 wins. That's very doable at this point.
