1949 AL Standings

July 1, 1949

  We've reached the month of July in the 1949 MLB season. The New York Yankees are in 1st place in the AL. They were a league best 20-11 in June and boast the top offense and pitching in the AL. The Cleveland Indians and Boston Red Sox continue to play winning baseball while my Detroit Tigers continue playing just a bit under their actual 1949 performance. The Tigers have an excellent starting rotation but their relief pitching has let them down repeatedly. If they had just 1 reliever they could count on shutting down opponents, Detroit would be a real threat to the league leaders.
