What is the best team in the AL?

Question

Rays or Angels?

Answer 1

The Rays have made great strides, but the Angels are the best team right now.

The Rays remind me of the 1969 Mets.

Answer 2

It has to be the Rays, they are winning WITHOUT their superstars, the Angels have not even won 4 games last week WITH their superstars.

Answer 3

Angels. They have better pitching and a better offense and are easily the best in the league.

Answer 4

Angels Have The Better Hitting, Pitching, and Experience,

Rays got nothin

Answer 5

The Best on paper, NYY.

The Best at scoring runs, TEX @ 756.

The Best with giving up the fewest runs TOR @ 526.

All this tells me. Don't look at the stats or the media for who will win this year. Its a great race. NoYankeess this year will be a dream come true. My best team? Min. Twins. This years COL Rockies, only they will take the hardware home... ... yes this is being said as a true homer.

  As far a LAA v TB. They both have the same basic O. Good hitting nobody putting big league leader numbers or even top 10. So the advantage gos to Pitching. I will take Sonnanstine (13w) Garza (3.53 era) Shields (3 CG and 2 SO) and Kazmir (140Ks) in TB over Lackey and Santana. Both Lackey and Santana have a little better numbers Lackey (3.10era) and Santana (183Ks and 14W). However, thats just 2 guys Garland can get hit this year he's just an innings eater.

Tampa Bay Wins, Again.  

Answer 6

rays

Answer 7

Both are good.  I think the Rays are better at regular season play, but the Angels will crush them in a series of 5 or 7 games.

Answer 8

The Angels are, but the Tampa Bay Rays are a near second and don't count out the Boston Red Sox at the end of the year

Answer 9

ANGELS!!!!!!!   hopefully they'll go all the way this year!!!  They have great players, and many strengths. However right now there are a lot of injured players. That may be a weakness on our team.

Answer 10

Angels

Answer 11

angels because of better pitching better and better offense and more experience oveall. The rays are a great story but they are kind of a fluke. Thats not to say theyre not good but a linup of willie aybar, gabe gross, eric hinske, zobrist? come on

Answer 12

Right now, Angels

With Crawford and Longoria, it's the Rays.

Answer 13

NEITHER!!!!!!!!!

TWINS!!!!

BEST ANSWER ME!!!!

Answer 14

If the Red Sox were not dealing with multiple injuries this August, they would be. But besides that, the Angels are. The Rays are better than the Angels when Crawford and Longoria are playing, but in the long run, the Angels have made it with the fewest injuries.
