TB 39-20 Min 36-23 Oak 35-24 Sox 35-24 NY 33-26 Hou 29-30 Cle 34-25 Tor 32-27 Sox possibilities: 2-seed: Sox win, Twins lose, A's lose 3-seed: Sox win, Twins lose, A's win  4-seed: Sox win, Twins win or Sox lose, Indians lose 7-seed: Sox lose, Indians win Blue Jays and Yankees swap 5 and 8 if Blue Jays win and Yankees lose A's and Twins swap if the A's win and the Twins lose (and Sox lose)

I'm going with a very simple prediction-- Twins, White Sox, Yankees win today. Sox host the Yankees. This is sure not to happen now.

Could happen. Not the way I thought it would.

Agreed. In a two month season, a pitcher isn’t going to win an MVP short of a quality start every time and no offensive player really standing out. Abreu has it in the bag.

That checks out

Yes, if they're both division winners with the same record, A's are 2, Twins are 3.

TB 39-20 Min 36-23 (2) Oak 35-24 Sox 35-24 NY 33-26 Hou 29-30 Cle 34-25 Tor 32-27 Sox possibilities: 2-seed: Sox win, Twins lose, A's lose 3-seed: Sox win, Twins lose, A's win 4-seed: Sox win, Twins win or Sox lose, Indians lose 7-seed: Sox lose, Indians win Blue Jays and Yankees swap 5 and 8 if Blue Jays win and Yankees lose

Twins and Indians both down 2-0. C'mon Sox, get it together!!

I wonder what Angel Hernandez's fellow crew members think when he sucks so bad? How do you allow this fuck to ump at the highest level?

Min/Cle trailing already

A’s lost game 1. Should have won easily...had scoring opportunities and Mike Minor looked pretty good even though I’m not a fan of his.

Frank Thomas should know how MVP voting works. 2 voters from each AL city, dumb ass.

Lemahieu had 4 hits today, pretty much gives TA no shot to win the batting title. So does this mean we can go back to saying batting average doesn’t matter?

It would be pretty wild if the Sox win and the Indians and Twins lose today—and after all of the bad stuff this week, they win the division if they beat the Cubs on Sunday.

The current pairings are locked in for Tuesday if this happens today: A’s win twice, Twins, Indians, Yankees also win White Sox and Blue Jays lose

Third place is the 7-seed, so the Sox would play the A’s or Twins. Go to the Magic Number thread to see the current pairings.

Magic #'s-- Twins: Sox 2, Indians 1 Indians: Sox 2, Twins 4 White Sox: Twins 3, Indians 3 TB 38-20 Oak 35-22 Min 35-23 Cle 34-24 NY 32-26 Hou 29-29 Sox 34-24 Tor 31-27 Tor at TB; NY at Cle Sox at Oak; Hou at Min If the Blue Jays go 2-0 and Yankees go 1-1 or 0-2, the Yankees would be the 8-seed.

If the A’s win tonight, there is a high probability the AL seeds will be: Tor at TB; NY at Cle Sox at Oak; Hou at Min

Yeah, I think Yankees is out the window now. Indians and Twins magic number on the Sox is 2 for each. If the A’s win tonight, they move up to the 2-seed and have a doubleheader tomorrow.

Well, if the Sox end up playing the Yankees first, the Sox just clinched home field. But that ain’t happenin.

Indians tied it in the 9th. Really could be in Oakland on Tuesday.

It should, but it won’t. I’m sure the Sox won’t get swept, and Cease is looking pretty good too. Spoke too soon. Ok, Netflix time.

Anyone else starting to worry we’re ending this year with a 10-game losing streak? ?

How many times has he hurt himself when he didn’t have to? It’s incredible.

"Likely out" from Renteria probably means he's done.
