| @greasytony: you seem to have forgotten just HOW bad the Devil Rays were. And Cleveland hasn't been THAT bad for the entire decade. They've had some horrible years, yes, but so has Toronto. And that's not even touching Baltimore. Records vs. their own division: Yankees-445-292, Twins 431-312, Red Sox 423-317. Yanks and Red Sox are right there with the Twins vs their own division. And a good bit of those losses can be attributed to BOS and NYY playing each other, right? So what does that say about the rest of the division? The last 2 years, what you said is probably true. Before that, I don't believe it to be true. |
