Hello and welcome back to FanPost Friday. Usually we talk about the Mariners in this space each week, but this week we need to reflect a bit on the AL West division with an emphasis on the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. Before we get to the Halos, I think we can all agree that the AL West is having a uniquely incredible year in general. This is insane right here:
Just how close the AL West race? This is the first time since the implementation of three divisions in the AL and NL in 1994 that three teams were within one game of first place entering September.
