To add to this. Seattle is playing a tough opponent while Houston isn't. They need to take advantage.
Toronto is no slouch playing in a tough division. Their record vs the AL East is basically the same as the Yankees' -- 12-16 vs 12-14 But agreed with you overall -- Baltimore is clearly better than the Jays.
