2012 Detroit vs Kansas City Betting Predictions
The Tigers are playing well but just can’t seem to catch and pass the White Sox like everyone expects they will (eventually they will run out of season).

September is nearly here and as always we are seeing some clear separation between the haves and the have-nots in Major League Baseball. There are only two real close division races in the Bigs – the rest of the divisions have leaders running away.
The trade deadline has come and gone and as per usual the rich have gotten richer and the poor have gotten poorer. For the first time this season the American League has given way to a pair on National League teams atop the standings.
2012 Toronto vs Seattle Betting Predictions
Trade deadline day is always an interesting one, especially for a team like the Jays which is hard to read. Mathematically they are in the hunt but will they mortgage even a hint of their bright future, especially given how injury stricken this team has been.
Did you know that if the season ended Monday that both Wild Card teams would have come out of the AL West? That is because the Oakland A’s are doing it again, stunning the league with surprising performances.
The All Star break is over – now is time to focus on the impending trade deadline only a couple of weeks away. The moves that will be made will most certainly have an impact on the Power Rankings in two weeks. Will the rich get richer?
The Padres are assuredly out of the race and will be using the second half to season some youngsters and make some decisions for next year.
We have arrived at the half-way part of the season – what a perfect time to take a look at the teams that have impressed throughout the first three months of the season and the teams that have fallen flat.
The Rays were in a bad way but may be turning the corner with a series win against the Yankees.
As this is being written the Rangers are getting hammered down 7-0 in the 5th as these two division leaders square off.
The Rangers were on a nice roll but couldn’t close out the sweep against Oakland over the weekend. Still they have won 7 of their last 10 and are one of the best road teams in the Majors with a 23-15 record.
Are things finally going to start to turn for Philly? They just got back Chase Utley (homer in first AB) and slugger Ryan Howard is rumoured to be not that far behind. The team may be 9 games back right now but if they are full strength in the second half I think most would expect them to make a run.
Another two weeks has passed – time for Dave B’s bi-weekly MLB Power Rankings! This week sees some familiar teams at the top with a traditional powerhouse almost reaching the pinnacle.
Every time I write about the Detroit Tigers it is the same story – when are these guys finally start playing to their potential and take control in the AL Central?
Atlanta has been struggling lately but they won the last two games of their series against the Yankees and are in the thick of it in the NL East race.
The Cardinals haven’t done much in this stretch of Interleague play, going just 4-5 against the likes of Cleveland, Chicago and Kansas City.
