When the Sox scored three to win on Tuesday, clinching 3rd on Saturday seemed impossible. No fun seeing Rodon being bad, but I’m happy it’s almost done. And if you want them to avoid 100 losses tomorrow, I hope you get your wish too.

I’d be for a clearing of the coaching staff, but we know it’s not happening. Who would you want as pitching coach? McCatty?

Dodgers about to clinch a postseason spot. Cardinals will be eliminated playing the Cubs with nothing on the line for themselves tomorrow.

Narvaez has been my player Most Likely to Screw Up the Draft Pick.

Agreed with this. Things could have been better in the minors. 2017 was much better than 2018, but you can’t script baseball. The “critical mass” needs to continue this offseason, and then we need Adolfo to get back on the field, Burger playing, Robert to play 250 minor league games the next couple years. It’s going to be an interesting offseason. Could be some trades that freak some people out too.

I no longer hold this attitude. ? Lose tonight.

It was right below the zone, but center cut. Down 8, just swing. Put the bat on the ball.

Sox lose 2. Marlins win. Tigers lose. Sox clinched 5th. Magic number over both the Marlins and Tigers is 1 with two games left.

Marlins win. Tigers tied.

Santiago did a good job this year. He was put in some tough spots that he had no shot but had to take it for the team.

The tiebreaker priority order is Tigers- White Sox- Padres- Marlins based on last year’s order. Sox clinch a top 5 with a loss. Sox clinch 4th if they lose and Tigers win. If the Sox lose tonight and the Marlins win, they can clinch 3rd tomorrow with either outcome.

ERA over 6, but the Sox have the luxury of time to give Giolito another shot next year. Hopefully he improves greatly, otherwise they’ll have guys to take his spot.

A Sox loss and a Tigers win tonight clinches at least the 4th pick.

3 games left 3. Sox 62-97 (Sox magic number) 4. Mia 62-96 (3) 5. Det 64-95 (2) 6. SD 64-95 (1)

Stay hot, Twins. No really. Stay hot.

Liriano vs Moya in Minnesota tonight. A Tigers win would mean a Sox-Twins 4-game split would clinch the Sox at least the 4th pick. Go Tigers.

3. Sox 62-96 (Sox Magic/Tragic #) 4 games left 4. Mia 62-96 (4/4) 3 games left 5. SD 64-95 (2/6) 3 games left 6. Det 64-94 (3/6) 4 games left But really, add a loss to the Marlins record and the Sox are 4th. Only Tigers vs Twins tomorrow night.

Hopefully the Sox clinch at least 5th before Sunday and we can watch the Brewers beat the Tigers to win the division. Tigers better beat the Twins tomorrow.

Let’s Go Ti Gers. Clap, clap, clapclapclap

deGrom put a cap on his season with 8 shutout. 2 hits, 10 k. He’ll finish 10-9, 217 innings, 269 k, 1.70 ERA.

Marlins on their way to another L.

True, but for all intents and purposes you can look at the standings this way, and pretend everyone is playing 162: Bal KC Mia 62-96 (5) Sox 62-95 SD 63-95 (4) Det 64-93 (4) Cin 66-92 (1) Tex 66-91 (1) Sox magic numbers in parentheses.
