51 games in, we've got a lot of tight races, but also some groups that seem to have runaways. There is now a three way tie for the best team in the group. The '27 Yankees are still right in the mix, as are the '66 Orioles, but now the 1944 Cardinals are on a heater, having won 12 straight games to tie the O's atop Group B. The biggest lead is in Group E, where the aforementioned '27 Yankees have a six game advantage on their nearest competitor.
If the tournament ended today, a 27-24 mark would guarantee a postseason appearance, though teams with a 25-26 record would make it from some groups. With just a hair under 40 games remaining, a lot can still change!
