Greinke to the Astros: Fuck the Dodgers, and fuck the entire National League...

Still thinking it's the Yankees, but, after the blockbuster that sees Houston (for whatever reason, still one of the Preferred Teams in Manfred-land, years after #HoustonStrong) picks up Zack Greinke, I think it's pretty much confirmed that the winner of the World Series this year is an American League team again.

I still think Manfred wants every game in the Series to be 15-10 (the only way the Yankees can "win" with that pitching staff), but it's clear he's so slanting it away from the National League, it's not even funny.

NL right now:

  • Dodgers are 31 over .500 at 70-39.
  • The Braves are 19 over .500 at 64-45.
  • No one else is over 8 games over.
AL:
  • Houston is 30 over .500 at 69-39.
  • The Yankees are 29 over .500 at 68-39.
  • The Twins are 65-41.
  • The Indians are 62-44.
  • The A's are 61-47
  • The Rays are 61-48.
  • The Red Sox are 59-49...  and 9 1/2 out of the division and 4 out of the wild card!
Gee, which league do you think they want to win...
