We’ll see. Obviously money will be a factor in a deal, but he has played better the last six weeks and would be going into a contract season. Could be attractive to another team. For the Sox, I just want him gone.

Benintendi played 151. I’ll give him a pass. Tim, Eloy, Yoan…I hope they’ve played their last games with the Sox.

Hopefully it’s just the GM meetings and the Winter meetings that we hear from him. I just want him to get a budget number for 2024, and then go make moves.

I must have OCD because these other game threads still pinned is really bugging me. ?

I have an idea of what they can do for the sake of playing until the end with some integrity… Treat the 5 and 6 seeds exactly the same no matter the record, and let the 1-seed choose who the 3 and 4 seeds host and which side of the bracket they want in the Division Series before they play. So the 1-seed is rewarded for their season and in the best position in their opinion before the playoffs start.

Dbacks not really playing the A lineup vs Houston, which isn’t good, in my opinion. Hopefully the Rangers beat the Mariners with Dunning on the mound.

No TA, Moncada, Eloy, Benintendi 61-101 Fire Pedro

Currently… Hou vs Min…winner to Texas Tor vs TB…winner to Baltimore Arz vs Mil…winner to Los Angeles Mia vs Phi…winner to Atlanta If the Dbacks, Marlins, and Rangers win on Sunday, this doesn’t change.

Mariners eliminated. Only seeding on the line tomorrow. Hou-Arz Tex-Sea TB-Tor Mia-Pit If Dbacks win and Marlins lose, the Marlins have to finish the game in NY on Monday. Astros win the West with a win and a Rangers loss

Dbacks clinched with the Reds loss. Mariners will be eliminated if the Astros hold on and beat the Dbacks.

Blue Jays and Rangers are in with the Mariners loss. Texas still trying to outlast Houston for the West.

Marlins clinch. Cubs eliminated. Reds also eliminated when they lose.

6-2 Marlins. Cubs six outs from elimination.

Fire Pedro

Blue jays lose. A loss Sunday, two wins by Seattle, and one Houston win, knocks out Toronto.

I think the Padres would like to finish .500 - or at least I hope they want to. They’ll play to win tonight.

5-seed race- Dbacks and Marlins magic number on each other is 3. So the Marlins may have to fly to NY tomorrow night if it isn’t settled. Marlins and Dbacks clinch playoff spots with any win or if the Cubs and Reds both lose one. AL 6-seed: Astros magic number on the Mariners is 2. Mariners magic number on the Astros is 3. Blue Jays clinch the 5-seed with one win, or one loss each by Hou and Sea AL West- Rangers magic number on the Astros is 2. Astros magic number on the Rangers is 3.

Clevinger vs Wacha The quest for 100 losses.

Actually, Cubs can’t catch Arizona. Any Cubs loss or Marlins win the rest of the way eliminates the Cubs

Marlins magic number on the Cubs is 1 Dbacks magic number on the Cubs is 1. When both are zero, the Cubs are done.

Go Brew Crew

This s%*# really needs to be addressed. Brewers shouldn’t mess with the baseball gods. It will catch up with them next week.

Start a thread tomorrow. I don’t give a s%*#.

Still raining in NY. Doubt Mets-Phillies play tonight.

Tarp back on. I’ll be shocked if they play.
