Most teams are right around the halfway mark of 46 games, with some wiggle room on either side of that figure. The 2016 Cubs remain the best team at the halfway mark as the only team to 30 wins, though the 1989 Athletics are right there just a game and a half back for the best record.
Since we're into the second half, I'm trying to make sure that I keep not only the standings sidebar on the main page of Confessions of a Sportscaster updated, but also my Google Sheet standings page. The divisional standings on there are sorted by years, but I've counted games back on there nonetheless. The Wild Card page for both leagues is sorted by winning percentage, and I've got those standings up to date as well. I will try to stay on top of those as best as I can because in a month or so I'll need to start keeping track of who's out and who clinches.
In this round we have four divisional matchups, two in each league, with the National League series being wraparound ones, and we have one doubleheader in the American League. All simulations are provided by WhatIfSports.com. Let's play ball!
