Does anyone think the Angels are benefitting from playing stress free?

Question

I'm not taking anything way from them at all, they are a very good team. But the AL east is sick. Every team is a potential playoff team in another divison. Thats gotta wear down on teams like the Sox and Yanks. You never really get a break. But playing Seattle, Oakland and Texas all the time must be a nice break.

Answer 1

I think you've got to give credit to a team with a 36-19 road record, especially when they just came into Fenway and swept the Red Sox.

The Angels are a strong team regardless of their division.

Answer 2

Definitely. It won't be easy for them in the playoffs, but they have a good team.

Answer 3

That's the only reason they got the best record in baseball, because they play all the worst teams in the AL West about 18 times a year

Answer 4

yeah they arent as good as their record shows. but they are good. they should be about a 55 or 56 win team right now.that is,if they had a real division
