What team do you think that no one looks at has a possibility of making the playoffs..AL or NL

Me, I say the Marlins could make a late run at the Mets and Phillies

I guess I would say the Marlins, only because they're the only team that's in contention that's really being overlooked, so I don't know who else you could qualify as a "dark horse."

Another team I'm not ready to count out yet, but not ready to label a "dark horse" because it's still a long shot, is the Colorado Rockies. As bad as they've been, they're only 7 games out in the West and if the Dodgers or D'Backs don't finish them off within the next few weeks, they could be in big trouble if the Rockies have a strong September like they had last year.

This may sound funny, but I see the Yanks as a dark horse. They could make a run, and end up edging out the Rays or BoSox for a wild card spot.

Only 3 games back in the division and 2 in the Wild Card now.

After the Dodgers have picked up Manny and Blake, I am not so sure...
