This last 1/3 of a season is going go be pretty awesome. Some real exciting races across the league. Discuss some of your picks and sleepers and teams you are suprised about in +/- ways.

I dont think the tigers are clear favorites anymore. there are clear issues with verlander, no sanchez.

Hoping to see the Royals and Pirates as well. I still think the Tigers make it to the playoffs. Their rotation is too good to continue in this slump. Verlander missing some time may actually help them. Hope the Orioles and Angels hold onto their places as well

I'm rooting for the Royals because I respect them.

And besides, the A's are lucky they're even in it given their horse shit lineup.

The A's line up is hardly "horse shit", I'm glad you did your research.

I'd say they were pretty horseshit. Donaldson is their only truly good to great hitter. Their team BA is .244 and that stinks. So does their slugging percentage of under.400. They win with their pitching, certainly not their line-up.

I didn't realise their whole offence was highly ranked because Cespedes only. My bad.
