The Houston Astros broke a team record by winning 107 games over the 2019 season. There has been talk that this is one of the greatest teams to ever take the field. Both Justin Verlander and Gerrit Cole are vying for the Cy Young Award as they have each dominated opponents by collecting more than 300 strikeouts and won 20 or more games. Alex Bregman is a legitimate MVP candidate being surrounded with a large cast of characters that are playing at extremely high levels. (Photos by Jack Gorman)
