Or even more amazingly, 21 teams are within FOUR-and-a-half games of a playoff berth!!!!!!
Right now...name the 8 hwo make the post season..
The Indians are one of those teams. Big series for the Tribe in Oakland. CC against Zito tonight. Will the Tribe be a buyer or seller before the trading deadline? Probably depends on how this west coast trip goes. Millwood and Wickman are most talked about to be traded if the Indians decide to sell and look to '06. Both have one year deals. The front office will catch it from the fans if they do decide to look to next year. GM Shapiro and owner Dolan have talked for the last few years, since trading Bartolo Colon in '02, that '05 would be the year to contend. Still a lot of holes on this team this year, though. Aaron Boone and Casey Blake both had an awful first half.
