Yeah.....good for them. Y'know, I've NEVER thought being one of the top 2 seeds is much of an advantage and have a sneaking suspicion it's even a disadvantage. Now, before people go crazy, here me out.
Baseball is such a game of rhythm, that I think taking a week off disrupts that. Other than the All Star break, where everyone has the same amount of time off, teams spend 6 months with no more than one day off and I think it's very difficult to maintain the sharpness after an extended break. Are there advantages? Sure. Rest for injuries, reorganizing your starting pitching, etc., but I don't know if that really makes up for the rust that can accrue.
