So I guess I need to re-make my playoff scenarios as I had the Rangers winning the West but Oakland did. So now that the season's over, this is how it stands for the opening round of the postseason.
ALDS:
New York (best record) vs. Texas (wild-card and third-best record)
Detroit (worst record) vs. Oakland (second-best record)
NLDS:
Cincy (second-best record) vs. S.F. (third-best record)
Washington (best record) vs. St. Louis-Atlanta (wild card)
