A lot of disappointing and underachieving teams in the AL West and NL Central.

> A new month, with new hope and fresh shattered dreams. Dodgers, Phillies and Brewers lead the NL. Yankees, Guardians and Mariners head up the AL. Biggest lead is 6.5 games (Phils over Braves). Narrowest lead is 2.0 (Yanks over Orioles). The summer is just heating up, and we have a lot more ball to play. Nobody is out of it yet except the White Sox, who were mathematically eliminated from a playoff slot by the middle of May.
