I'd be surprised if there's been a season with more parity than this year's AL. There are currently 12 teams that are within 5.5 games of the postseason and 14 within 7. I'd love to see about a 6-way tie for the final wild card spot just to watch the powers that be pull out their hair dealing with how difficult that makes the postseason schedule. Can you imagine how much spin the commissioner's office would have to generate for night games in the north in November? Wonder if Rob Manfred would do a Bowie Kuhn and wear shirt sleeves in 40-degree weather?
