LAAA has 7 against the Rangers, 3 at Boston, and 1 at NYY. Whereas except for a 3 game series against TB, Texas has only the West on their schedule.

LAA's next 13 games is one brutal stretch: Home vs. Chi for 3, fly to NY for 1, fly to Bos for 3, fly to Tex for 3 (love that they finish a West to East Coast trip and back in Arlington --- couldn't have drawn it up any nicer!) and then back home for 3 vs. NYY. I said 3 weeks ago that, strangely enough, Oak might decide this thing. They play LAA 6 times and us 7 times. They could swing the race. Gotta love Pennent Fever!!!@!!!!!

That will make it tough to make up any ground during that week. Boston plays seven games against Kansas City and Baltimore after their series with the Angels.
