20 and at that I still don't think it's safe. There has been major collapses in baseball.

That twins second half schedual is tough and we got a pretty tough one too but nowhere near that. The last series against the twins is at the cell . As much as we all think the twins are going to be fighting for it down the stretch it probably wont be them. It will most likely be the Cleveland indians! Most people predicted this team would come out with the division at the beginning of the year and they are going to be a tough team to keep back. We may be sitting pretty right now but this division could be fought for at the end. Like gammons said, the indians play the royals, d-rays, and mariners more than 30 games in the second half. The final series of the season will be against the indians at jacobs and hopefully we will have it locked up by then, i think we will and most of the people here would agree.

Twins in September the last 3 years has been lethal, never get comfy, put em away NOW!!!! Still have 14 vs the Twins and 9 vs Cleveland!

Until that magic number hits 0, nothing's a lock.

The Magic Number will not be zero in July, therefore, all of them, plus most of August.

Off the top of my head...

 

'64 Phillies

'69 Cubs

'78 Red Sox

 

All teams that lost large, late season leads. I think the Angels blew one to the M's a few years back, but I can't remember what year. Regardless, this race is a LONG way from over.

Here it is 57 -27 ... to get 95 wins we need 38 more victories. we have 78 games reamaining and Ozzie is going to try and win all of them except those games he puts timo in.

Agreed. Forget about the division being a "lock" for now.
