Baseball's marathon regular-season schedule tells us a lot about who's the best team in baseball, but as of today, that question becomes almost totally irrelevant.
A 108-win team (like the Red Sox) is barely a 3:2 favorite in a single game against a 90-win team (like the Braves), and that's the biggest gap in this year's postseason. Most of these games are, to the naked eye, not much more weighted than a coin flip -- at least, until the game starts and one team simply plays better.
