Green Line Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 2 minutes ago, 35thstreetswarm said: Easy to stay dispassionate when I didn’t watch (for a change), but seems like a pretty good day. We avoid Cleveland. We get a lefty starter in game 1. Our offense woke up and battled back again, scored 8 runs (sounds like overcame some bad calls too), and we lost because a guy who will not be starting in the playoffs anyway gave up a bunch of runs. Yes the division would’ve been nice the playoffs are the real show. Am I missing something? Yes. This team has lost 8 of its last 10 games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draw is good but I don't like having to go and play in Oakland. Hottest AL teams coming in are Rays and Indians so the rest are all .500ish.

Green Line Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 On the bright side, Oakland might be the only team worse than the Twins when it comes to winning playoff series. 1-11 in their last 12 playoff series, with the one win being against said Twins. Lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maloney.adam Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 (edited) Hey, at least we will not be travelling a whole lot if we win the series with Oakland. Only a short plane right or they can drive to LA. The Sox should’ve won the division. The Cubs were practically handing them the division.

That's why Engel needs to start in CF, Robert in right, Garcia in LF, and Eloy as DH. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eloy as DH and Engel in LF makes the sox so much better as a team. We wont have to see EE except for a pinch hit and the defense will be NAILS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wegner Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 The Athletics are about to play the only team in major league history to go undefeated against LH starters in a season. I feel sorry for them. 😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iWiN4PreP Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Oakland, huh? That's an amazing match up. Cleveland would have sucked, big time, with their pitching staff and how we have been playing. New York would have been OK, but their hitting is scary and I think would decimate our weak SP. Oakland really doesn't have shit. Their offense is not good, their pitching has outperformed their skillset. Honestly, I'm super happy with that -- I think the White Sox will own this. I do have them losing to the Twins in the next round tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
