I also think that *relative* margins would be the best measure of defeat strength here!
Here's something like relative margins: percentage of games won between those two teams.
0 67 44 56 44 78 100 56 56 53 65 86 47 44 33 0 53 33 50 100 67 44 26 0 78 58 71 58 56 47 0 67 43 86 67 33 58 89 56 74 44 74 44 67 33 0 53 42 68 47 43 22 78 67 67 43 56 50 57 47 0 47 58 37 33 67 56 50 11 71 22 0 14 58 53 0 42 37 57 44 56 50 44 67 0 33 33 32 42 58 0 37 17 22 29 33 44 50 44 56 67 53 63 63 63 0 33 29 56 44 71 67 44 74 42 57 67 43 83 67 0 78 67 79 56 63 47 100 11 78 33 56 78 71 22 0 58 78 55 67 35 22 44 22 44 44 71 44 33 42 0 29 37 22 14 42 26 33 50 50 67 56 21 22 71 0 22 50 53 29 56 33 89 56 56 29 44 45 63 78 0 78 56 42 26 57 29 33 50 33 37 33 78 50 22 0
I checked AL results with these numbers - Boston and Anaheim still tie in Ranked Pairs, but Anaheim now wins in Beatpath. Interesting that the Yankees don't show up in these comparisons at all.
