38-28 against .500+ teams before tonight Astros and Tigers two best teams on paper

Dobnik former Twins RHP/swingman no Wacha is the biggest break there Noah Coleman their second best starter...couldn't ask for much more

Blue Jays last realistic shot to get back into it just evaporated into thin air

Blue Jays last realistic shot to get back into it just evaporated into thin air

Orioles and Royals are your counter examples...Tigers and Mariners, too. It wasn't just trading Bonemer. It was presumably Carlson Hagen Schultz and McDougal too. The Sox averaging one postseason every 11-12 years of franchise history makes their situation a bit more unique. Even with a terrible deadline...they were one better executed pitch against Rocchio from essentially being up 3 1/2 with the tiebreaker.

$145 million seems much more realistic $170 sounds more like the opening appetizer or gambit in negotiations that seems more generous to fans there aren't enough quality FA's to even get to those numbers in one offseason without heavy spending on extensions and NPB/KOR players At $145 million, about half the teams automatically would have to increase their payrolls

The White Sox should be able to go 5-2 although 4-3 sure feels likelier based on the last three weeks

Houston would have to go 6-1 to beat Sox at 4-3 5-2 not enough 5-2 Sox finish means 7-0

Acuna's bro GS off Abreu

screwing over Phillies a consolation prize of sorts

Acuna running Braves out of inning 2-1 Houston Civale pitching high leverage for Cubs

At least he doesn't hit every damn ball on the ground like Acuna and Braden, there's that.

He can run the Sox DR Academy for $22 million.

even Varsho is for Astros killing his FA

Astros 2-0

Rangers still have to go 6-1 if White Sox go 4-3 5-2 means they would have to go 7-0 Houston will probably complicate all this somehow

Cease and Soriano didn't exactly cooperate...did they ? 3-0 Rangers Blue Jays Mets Mariners Tigers go down as biggest disappointment in 2026

He looks good in a Sox uniform lol?

That sarcastic "might be competitive by 2029 at this rate" comment from Southsider2k5 sure has a long shelf life.

Mason Adams G162 lol

They should have won 2/3 Tuesday Wed Saturday and this would all be academic now there's a 50/50 chance no home playoff games unless they can win WC round on the road

How about he "executes" Castillo right off the potential playoff roster? When you have to trust a rookie pitcher with a 5.88 era to cover high leverage over Luis...well, that's certainly something.

86.8 CLE 85.3 CHW =GEtz Genius

Vargas just took it upon himself to win this one....like Mune on Thursday

So many ups and downs in one week beginning with the Grichuk homer... three of these games were devastating losses yet they could be tied with CLE and essentially three up on Texas/Toronto Peters still day to day???
