Following Sunday’s disappointing series finale against the Mariners, the Astros now find themselves with some competition for control of the AL West. Well, one could argue that has been the case all season, but a four-game series sweep AT HOME to the Mariners has to be the low point of the season. Here is how the AL West currently stands.
Team (Record) Games Back
- Astros (73-46) –
- Athletics (70-48) 2.5
- Mariners (69-50) 4.0
- Angels (59-60) 14.0
- Rangers (52-68) 21.5
Give credit to the Athletics and Mariners, though.
