Any team "could" go to the world series. The question is "will" they?
I do think Boston will bounce back and win the division this year, but the Rays have a good chance at the wild card. Once they get into the postseason, it's a crapshoot and they'd have as good a chance as anyone.My top 10 players:
1. Babe Ruth
2. Barry Bonds
3. Ty Cobb
4. Ted Williams
5. Willie Mays
6. Alex Rodriguez
7. Hank Aaron
8. Honus Wagner
9. Lou Gehrig
10. Mickey Mantle

but making it will be very hard and they are certain not the front runner to make one of the two spots. but then again they weren't in the last two years...I now have my own non commercial blog about training for batspeed and power using my training experience in baseball and track and field.

No, this is the Tiger's year. Best pitching staff in baseball. Best power hitters in baseball.Vintage Photos of Detroit Ballparks:

No reason the Rays cant. Arguably the best pitching staff in baseball.....arguably the best defense in baseball, and a good offense with Longoria, Zobrist, Jennings, Joyce, Pena and Upton.
To the really knowledgable fan and journalist, this team is not an underdog anymore. They are a top 5 team in baseball, and you can argue the best if you want. A low payroll doesnt really equal being an underdog if you have talent coming out of your ears the way that Tampa does at the moment."all the mets road wins against the dodgers this year have occured at Dodger Stadium"---Ralph Kiner

There are about 7-8 teams in each league that with enough healthy and luck have a realistic shot of making the playoffs. And once those playoffs start, anybody can win. Of course the Rays can win the World Series.1885 1886 1926 1931 1934 1942 1944 1946 1964 1967 1982 2006 2011

If hitting a baseball is the toughest thing to do in sports, then pitching must be the easiest thing to do in sports.
