The emotions of the 2022 season of the best baseball in the world, the MLB, continue and this Sunday closes another week full of many emotions where there were no changes in the different divisions, but the teams continue to show that they want to be in the postseason.

The Yankees are still at their best, showing a spectacular level of play and with a very good streak of 9 wins and 1 loss in their last 10 games. We can also highlight the good level of the Blue Jays, who right now are far from the Yankees, but are playing very good baseball.

Another that seems to have woken up is the Boston Red Sox, with 8 wins in their last 10 games. In this same situation are the Cleveland Guardians and Philadelphia Phillies. While the current MLB champions, Atlanta Braves, are back now they want to cut the advantage of more than 6 games that they have of difference concerning the leader of their division, the NY Mets.

On the other side of the coin, we have several teams. We start with the Los Angeles Angels, who despite still being in second place in the AL West division, have a terrible record of 1 win and 9 losses in their last 10 games. The Oakland Athletics are on a 10-game losing streak and unexpectedly the Milwaukee Brewers, who remain just 0.5 games out of first place, are also on a 1-9 losing streak.

Now, this weekend the different series that are being played will end, and, where we will have an analysis of the best games of this weekend.
