2004 AL Wild Cahd
0.5 gain on Texas and Oakland (still behind Texas though).
At over 9 games behind the MFY, at the beginning of August. Well, I just don't see it. Are there still 6 games left, head-to-head? Maybe there is a sweep possibilty w/ the Boston's beefier infield, a new interest in base-running, and the fragility of NY's pitching rotation.
