    Cleveland is a great "end the season" story... but Boston came out of nowhere and just won... best AL record

    Texas went 17 - 2 vs. Houston. Red Sox had a higher winning % vs. Houston than the A's did (.857 vs. .789).

    I went with Francona. Getting Cleveland to this point is more impressive to me.

    I went with the home pick, but turning the Sox around in one season, Melvin continues to get production, Francona getting the Indians together after his issues in Boston last season, all are deserving. Even Girardi having to deal with so many injuries and the ARod crap.
