It might not feel like it for those who bet on the Boston Red Sox last night (victims to the largest comeback in Orioles history), but as the 2009 All Star break approaches, the BoSox have the best record in the AL, and have been a profitable play for bettors when picking their spots.

Each year I write something that pertains to this subject. Let me preface by saying that baseball is my least favorite spectator sport as a fan of the game, straight up or with action on it. I am a huge College Football fan, being from Nebraska I have no choice, as well as NFL, NCAA Hoops (what’s better than March madness, really?) as well as the NBA.

Texas Rangers (2008 Record: 79-83, 2nd place in AL West, 21 GB)
Since their late ’90’s run of division titles and playoff appearances, the Rangers have done a complete about face when it comes to winning baseball.
