That’s what I figured.

6 from Martin today Do not use newcomb, Hudson, taylor, smith.. .....off day tomorrow and then those guys will be fully rested for 6 hame stretch to end season. Hicks, schweitzer, Castillo, Richards have to do the job today Let's get a W

I think it's better to have it next Monday and give them two days off. Have a feeling we'll be in the playoffs by then but it might determine the division

They should. Sox off tomorrow and tigers with short travel back to Detroit.

Yeah. But the way I look at it is one of Houston or Texas will likely knock each other out of the playoffs. If Houston get to the playoffs, likely as a division winner IMO. They look really bad though. I think if we win and they lose today, it's over for them when it comes to the wild card. Like I wouldn't celebrate a playoff clincher yet today with that result but..... at that point... it's close to 99%.

Have a feeling we get a repeat of 08, if it's necessary.

Being in the last wild card spot with Houston (who has the tie breaker) right behind is is unsettling. These last few games are going to be nuts.

Will they wait 4 hours to get the game in is the question.

Hopefully 2026 ends in a similar way.

That was just round one.

Tigers play this Monday through Wed so would have to be made up the following Monday, if necessary doesn't look good but could actually end up a badly needed extra two days of rest for the bullpen

Martin vs. Melton Not sure if they are gonna get this one in. Looks like the rain clears eventually but they would have to wait quite a while. Lineups TBD

These stats are heartwarming and all but we’re talking about a small pool of teams to start with. I think only 13 teams total, and only four in the modern era.

I wonder if they’ll go with Burke on Thursday and Martin on Friday. That way you’d them available to start to the first two playoff games if we get there.

The people in the biz saying the playoff format is the reason why the AL sucks this year I think are misleading in that assertion. The NL isn’t that way and they are under the same format. For whatever reason it’s just a bad season for the AL. Not sure if anyone can point to one specific reason. One contributing factor could be more interleague play…if NL teams are better then theoretically they are going to beat up on AL teams more.

Dobnik ex Twin pedestrian stuff

I mean, it’s the entire AL thats mediocre this season so all the records look shitty and undeserving. Then you look at the NL and it’s all higher win totals and it looks like an inspired race to the top. more playoffs is fun, I like fun. Never go back, always have fun

The 1973 Mets took the NL East with an 82-79 record, then beat a 99 win Big Red Machine team for the NL pennant. The Mets gave the Oakland A's all they could handle but lost 4-3. For me that was one of the more entertaining playoffs and WS I watched. I would not change the present format for the playoffs based on one outlier season.

I'll cut Lori some slack because she is a White Sox fan but it's a reach on her part.

Need more Houston Horrors/Rangers in Danger

all time Sox playoff team since 1905-1919 versus perhaps the poorest Sox post season team at least W-L record-wise

Black Out 2 The Detroit Demise

Gave up on SD when down 5-1 for Ole Miss/LSU crazy game a lot of youngsters contributing, including 20 year old catcher Salas w/ game winner another Miller blown save in recent weeks Tatis headed for Top 6-10 fWAR finish after being total garbage first two months Mize won't even make playoff roster

Never say never, we were pretty good against them in the 2005 WS.
