Would you say that the Tigers rebuild is more successful than the O's?

To answer the OP's question - It's too early to tell. But neither team/franchise won anything. I think their fanbase is a little happier because it was unexpected and they at least one a series.

But neither franchise has anything to stick their chest out about.

I bet neither the Tigers nor the Royals return to the playoffs next year.  That said, don’t see how you can view their seasons as anything other than a success.  Different thing than overall organizational health.

It depends on how bad the white Sox are next year.  If the white Sox rebound then they won't make it.

How many of Seattle, Boston and Tampa will the Tigers (or Royals) beat next year?

Both Central clubs took advantage of valuable marginal wins in the low-mid 80's a bunch of White Sox games made easier.

The 2024 AL admitted 6/15 teams to its Festivus, the 1966 AL admitted 1/10.    Had it admitted 4/10, Frobby and the gang I guess would have had to survive a 3 or 5 game series with the 4th place White Sox - Tommie Agee 3 years earlier, Don Buford, Gary Peters and Tommy John.     They probably would have handled them.

The White Sox were historically bad.

Teams are not historically bad two years in a row.

They might lose 100-105, they won't lose 120.

I don't get the cavalier attitude that the Royals and Tigers won't make the playoffs next year.  People are acting like it's a given that we'll make the playoffs, too.

Indeed, I would much rather be one of the other 18 teams to not reach the playoffs.

Update:    no.

The answer is no.
