1st Place: Kansas City Royals
Kansas City is a contender. Currently 20 games over .500 , the Royals are in a great position. As long as they keep up the pace, they should have the #1 seed in the American League. After having seven players on the American League All-Star , it's no wonder why the Royals are dominating as such.
2nd Place: Minnesota Twins

3rd Place: Detriot Tigers
While 3 games under .500, the Tigers are only 3.5 games back from a spot in the wild card. They will need Miguel Cabrera and others will have to step it up and make a run!
4th Place: The Chicago WhiteSox
Also 3 games under .500, the WhiteSox also must make a run to get into the wild card. In their last 10 games, the WhiteSox are on a roll, winning the last 7 out of 10 games. Don't be surprised if the WhiteSox earn a playoff spot.
Last: Cleveland Indians
While the Indians are a whooping 14.5 games back, they are not completely out out it. There are only 3 games behind the WhiteSox and Tigers, which are both teams still in the hunt for a wild card spot. The closer they get to those teams, the closer they get to a chance to make the playoffs. Next week, the Indians have an important series against the Twins. This may be their last opportunity.
