The games that will be simulated below took place between May 17th and 19th. I spent the 18th at Nationals Park in DC, went to Philadelphia for a game on the 19th, the followed that up with a trip to Oriole Park at Camden Yards on Monday the 20th. That was part of the reason why I'm working from behind here.
My hope is to get caught back up as soon as possible, especially with some travel plans in the works for this summer. But in the interim, we're nearing the halfway point, and we're really starting to see some separation. The 1966 Baltimore Orioles have taken over the overall lead with a 29-10 mark so far. At this stage, 20 wins seems to be a common cutoff point for the postseason, though there are some teams with more wins in a tougher group that would miss the cut, while other groups have teams with losing records that would advance. Obviously, with 51 games still on the docket, that can change.
