AL Playoff Seeds

Posted by Michael Cahill on Jan 30 2014 at 04:00PM PST

 

I think I made a mistake with the AL seeds.

All 4 teams essentially tied for 1st with 18 points.

Head to Head record(s), then Division Record determine seeds. I think I had Angels at 4-2 and the other 3 teams at 3-3 and then went to Division record to determine seeds.  Or, since no definitive head to head winner, I went right to Division record.  Not sure. Here are the correct seeds. Division record (points) doesn't actually come into play.

1) Angels: 4-2 (2-0 vs Mariners, 1-1 vs Astros, 1-1 vs Tigers) (Angels points vs AL Division = 14)
2) Mariners 3-3 (0-2 vs Angels, 2-0 vs Astros, 1-1 vs Tigers) (Mariners points vs AL Division = 12)
3) Astros 3-3 (1-1 vs Angels, 2-0 vs Tigers, 0-2 vs Mariners) (Astros points vs AL Division = 9)
4) Tigers 2-4 (1-1 vs Angels, 1-1 vs Mariners, 0-2 vs Astros) (Tigers points vs AL Division = 12)
 
So, Angels play Tigers with Angels getting home field for all games.  Mariners host Astros (Games 1,3).
