Winning Percentages of Opponents
The Twins have a slightly easier schedule than the yankees do so says the Winning Percentages of their opponents. The White Sox have definitively the hardest schedule with 25 games versus the Tigers, Twins, Yanks and Sox.
NYY - .507
BOS - .510
CWS - .526
MIN - .5066*
Home Road Advantage
No team has a very significant differential between their home games and road games, the Red Sox have the best ratio of Home to Road games and have one extra game at home vs. the Yanks than at the Stadium, but not a huge advantage.
NYY - 31 Road Games, 26 Home Games
BOS - 26 Road Games, 29 Home Games
CWS - 28 Road Games, 28 Home Games
MIN - 28 Road Games, 27 Home Games
Conclusion
The White Sox are seriously behing the 8-ball with their schedule. And the Twins have a decent advantage with playing the Royals an abundant amount of time. In the end I fully expect the Yanks and the Red Sox to have the best 2 records in the AL outside of Detroit and both teams will take their weaker opponents in the last week of the season down, while the White Sox and Twins finish with each other.
