Once again they've feasted on garbage teams this year. They've yet to face either the Yankees or the Red Sox, and I'm fairly certain they've only seen the Rays once.
After they swept the M's last week my ex was talking about how she sees seeds of '05. Lol...they lost three of four to the Twins then dropped two of three to the A's prior to that. Apparently beating the worst team in the American League counts for quite a bit these days.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
They're going to win their division. Of that I am certain. They've just had way too much go their way, gotten such strong pitching, and seem impervious to any obstacles (injuries, piss-poor start, Ozzie's and Kenny's constant supply of bullshit), but when they get to the playoffs they will get bludgeoned by the Yanks / Rays. At least I hope they will. I won't hold my breath though.
