   3 WS wins in the past 5 years, I get it. The Giants are good, but not as much as the Brewers and Athletics.

   The Dodgers beat the Oakland Athletics, and the Giants. Vote please.

   With one of the best rotations in the MLB, they are off to a great start.

4. Baltimore Orioles

   

   The Baltimore Orioles are a professional baseball team based in Baltimore, Maryland. They compete in Major League Baseball as members of the American League East division. The team plays its home games at Oriole Park at Camden Yards and has a rich history that includes multiple World Series titles.

   The Baltimore Orioles seem to be a team of destiny this year. Even with the loss of their All-Star catcher, Matt Wieters, early in the 2014 campaign, they've been able to get the most out of that position, with Todd Hundley and Caleb Joseph. They've also suffered temporary setbacks to injury, with key players, at various times of the season, but have always been able to get production from others being platooned, to fill the void. The long and short of it is that the Birds of Baltimore are for real, and are playing great baseball, as we approach September. They are by far the best team in the AL East, probably the strongest division in baseball, and the last time I checked, had a 7.5-game lead over New York and an 8-game lead over the team north of the border.

5. Milwaukee Brewers

   

   This Major League Baseball team competes in the National League Central Division and represents Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Home games are played at American Family Field, a stadium known for its retractable roof. The team is known for its Barrelman mascot, navy blue and gold team colors, and loyal fan base... read more

   After the season, I thought the Brewers did pretty well this year.

   I'm a Sox fan, and I'll admit that the Brewers are off to a great start.

6. Atlanta Braves

   The Detroit Tigers are an American professional baseball team based in Detroit, Michigan. The Tigers compete in Major League Baseball as a member of the American League Central Division. They are one of the American League's eight charter franchises, established in 1894.

   They're fierce this year... Heavy hitters, stealing bases. They have strong starting pitchers with powerful relief.

8. Boston Red Sox

   

   The Boston Red Sox are an American professional baseball team based in Boston, Massachusetts, that competes in Major League Baseball. They are a member of the American League East Division. The team has won nine World Series championships, most recently in 2018.

   So what if the Yanks won 37 World Series? The Red Sox have better records and some better players.

   Yeah, they won last year's World Series, but now they are not doing very well.

9. Anaheim Angels

   

   The Los Angeles Angels, formerly known as the California Angels from 1965 to 1996, the Anaheim Angels from 1997 to 2004, and the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim from 2005 to 2015, are a Major League Baseball team based in Anaheim, California. The franchise was founded in 1961.... read more

   They finished with a record of 98-64, just ahead of the Baltimore Orioles.

   Best record in all of MLB this year! They should be at #1 on this list!

10. Washington Nationals

    

    The Washington Nationals are a professional baseball team based in Washington, D.C. The Nationals compete in Major League Baseball as a member of the National League East division. The team was established in 1969 as the Montreal Expos and relocated to Washington in 2005.

    May I ask why the number 1 seed team in the National League is only number 12 on this list?

    They're off to a good start but will have to bounce back with the injury of Zimmerman.
