My Orioles have a perfect record and are in sole possession of first place in the AL East!

I vote we end the season right now. Who's with me?

The Detroit Tigers and their fans certainly support that idea!

As a KC guy...looking to keep rolling in 2016. Hard to make it a third straight WS but I just hope they stay competitive and are in it til the end of the regular season if nothing else.

but will gladly take another trip to the postseason, too.

Well, as a Red Sox fan, I'm not quite ready to stop the season yet. Especially how today's game has started

**Welp, that was a short-lived lead.

I know the season has just begun, but in the AL East the Orioles are in first place and the Yankees are in last! It is a dweam within a dweam!

Thanks to a nice little run of playing the Braves, the Sox are currently just a half game behind the O's.
But of course, the best news is that the Yankees are still in last place as of this date.

Heh. "Last-place Yankees." I could say that all day.

The Red Sox are getting their act together. If they can keep up that amazing road record, this will be a good season for them.

I am keeping my hopes tempered could this year be next year? I hope so.

Are you a Cubs fan? You are in a span of several years of probable contending for the WS.

Dear Red Sox:

Please stop winning. Trading first place back and forth with you is getting tiring.

Sincerely,

Orioles Nation

Would love to see a Indians/Cubs World Series!

I'm in favor of this!

I'm hoping the Cubbies can get out of their funk. These past few weeks have been rough!

Ugh, the BoSox pitching is killing me! The fact that they are still in the hunt is purely tied to their offense and Steven Wright. That being said, I hope they don't mortgage the future to get a "big-name" pitcher. They are not one piece away from anything. Let Pomeranz become accustomed and see what he can do, wait for Kimbrell and Uehara to come back, let Betts get healthy and then see where you are. If Price could find any consistency and look like his historical self, that would help immensely as well.
No doubt they are still very much in the hunt for the East title or the Wild Card, but they are looking too inconsistent to give me much comfort in the thought of them advancing much in the postseason.
All that moaning aside, I'm still watching, rooting, and hoping for a fun and deep run in the playoffs.

Prefacing this by saying I know there are Oriole's fans here but that was a nice two-game sweep by the Sox to take over second place in the AL East. The tough trip continues with a very quick turnover game at Detroit this afternoon but they are looking good right now. Starting pitching is looking much better which can only help the bullpen get settled. Loving to see the continued development of all the young players and Benintendi is fitting right in. Lot of good things to look forward to in the future and hoping that they continue this nice streak right into the playoffs.

Ok people, who have you got?

Wildcard one-and-done games:
I have Toronto over Baltimore and SF over the Mets.

Division Series:
I'm going with Boston (obviously if you have read any of my posts), Texas, Dodgers, and the Cubs.

Championship Series:
Boston and Cubs.

World Series:
Boston (even though it won't surprise me if the Cubs take it all and break their curse).
