X-Houston Astros 99-63 In 2018, the Houston Astros appeared to be well on their way to repeating as World Series Champions until they ran into a team of destiny. The Astros won a franchise best 103 games during the regular season before steamrolling the Cleveland Indians in the American League Divisional Series. Houston would then [...]
With October here, are the Boston Red Sox the team to beat in the American League?
The Oakland Athletics are one of Major League Baseball's oldest franchises.

The Athletics could be ready to wave the white flag and with that it might be time for them to make some [...]
X-Los Angeles Angels 89-73 Last season was a tremendous one for the Los Angeles Angels. The Halos won 98 games in the regular season which was tops in Major League Baseball, but they had an October to forget as they were swept in the American League Divisional Series by the Kansas City Royals.
