Well i'll go out on a limb and say that both Minnesota and the Sock wins 85+. Detroit's offseason is very curious, they are dumping guys like they are rebuilding but yet keep signing old guys, and still have a huge payroll.

:roll: And with the Orioles, Blue Jays, Pirates, Reds, A's, Dbacks, and Padres, you could easily say the same about many other divisions in baseball.

...and if the White Sox got to play the NL for every game they'd average 90 wins a year(actual statistic).

Kind of skewed. Taken over what 14 years?

Oh and using those numbers the Twins would win 92, three games ahead of the Sox's

Sounds about right

Yeah. 228 games is pretty small.

Not really if also take into account the AL's record in interleague play (including the WS & All-Star game :wink: ) over the past 15 years or so.

Probably, the Twins have been consistently better over that time period.

I edited when I realized my mistake.
