Yeah, but once the ASB hits, a team's current record is more predictive of what is going to happen the rest of the season than pythag record. Granted, going into the ASB, Oakland was only 3 games back. It's just funny because everyone was mentioning Lowrie as a potential trade target as if Oakland was a seller.Anybody who assumed Sea as a playoff team with their unsustainable record given their run differential wasn't paying attention. They were overdue for some hard regression.
I'd like to see Oakland's run differential on a chart if anyone feels inclined. I'd think that number has grown a lot in the last month or two.
