Team of the Decade 2010s
-
I forgot to do this after the baseball season....so I will catch up on it here, now.
This is the calculation of the Team of the Decade of the 2010s in Major League Baseball.
Note on Methodology: As with the NFL....here I assess points to each team that makes the playoffs in any given year. The Team that wins the World Series receives 10 points. The WS loser gets 6 points. The losers of the League Championship series get 3 pts. All other playoff participant receive one point. I then accumulate the point received by each team for all years of the decade. In this case from 2010 to 2017. We are 8/10th through this decade. So, here are the accumulated points for each team so for in the 2010s:
SF Giants 31 points
St. Louis Cardinals 23 pts.
Chicago Cubs 16 pts.
Kansas City Royals 16 pts.
LA Dodgers 14 pts.
Texas Rangers 14 pts
Detroit Tigers 13 pts.
Boston Red Sox 12 pts.
Houston Astros 11 pts.
NY Yankees 11 pts.
Cleveland Indians 8 pts.
NY Mets 7 pts
Toronto Blue Jays 6 pts.
Baltimore Orioles 5 pts.
Phillies 4 pts.
Nationals 4 pts.
Tampa Bay Rays 3 pts.
Brewers 3 pts.
Oakland A. 3 pts
Pitt. Pirates 3 pts.
Cincinnati Reds 2 pts
Atlanta Braves 2 pts
Minnesota Twins 2 pts.
Diamondbacks 2 pt.s.
LA Angels 1 pt.
Colo. Rockies 1 pt.
Mariners -0-
White Sox -0-
Marlins -0-
Padres -0-

The top 11 heading into the final year of the 2010s my doesn't time.....and baseball fortunes..... fly by. So who's left to make the top 5? Or drop out of the top 10?
And is Cleveland's window even with future HOF msnager Terry Francona about to close soon?

I have not yet updated this since the World Series. In fact, I don't think I did it for basketball after the NBA Finals.
