"Heading West" - Athletics
The Athletics are last in the American League West. They are far behind all the other teams in the division. Terrible home and away records have left them 37 games behind the division-leading Houston Astros. Now already out of the race, they should look to play more freely and without pressure. It will be extremely difficult to dismantle a team like the Braves.
Atlanta has been brilliant and well-balanced on all fronts. They have immense firepower in their belly as well as seasoned pitchers, showing all the other teams why they are the defending champions. The Braves are currently on a 7-3 run and will aim for a clean sweep against the Athletics. Above them are only the New York Mets.
