This is getting pretty bad (+/-15 to +/-19)

Boston (+15): Who knew that replacing the manager and trading three stars towards the end of the season would result in a worst-to-first season? Not only worst-to-first, but the best record in MLB this year.

Cleveland (+15): Like the D-Backs and Royals, the Indians give me fits every year. They always either way underperform or over perform my expectations. For the Tribe this year, it was the latter.

LA Dodgers (+18): Blame it on the Wild Horse (Yasiel Puig), the resurgence of Hanley Ramirez, the powerful left am of Clayton Kershaw or any other thing you can think of. They won 42 of 50 at one point. They seemed to be a few days away from firing manager Don Mattingly at one point. This up-and-down team was hard to peg.
