Another save for Britton in a 2-1 win.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Sep 18, 2016 -> 11:09 AM) In fact, aside from the ATL start, Sale would have a 2.76 ERA Too bad, but it happened. He also put 7 extra innings on the bullpen on July 23rd. Nobody knows how he would have done that night.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Sep 18, 2016 -> 10:25 AM) http://www.espn.com/mlb/features/cyyoung Looks like Porcello and Lester in a close battle with Scherzer... Robertson was on this list a couple weeks ago. Britton will win if he doesn't blow any (he almost did the other night). It's a special season for a reliever in a year where no starter is standing out from the pack. If he blows it, I hope Sale makes 32 starts, 230+ innings, and an ERA under 3.00. That would stand out.

Starting to look like Orioles-Blue Jays to face the Rangers, and Red Sox-Indians in the ALDS. Mariners are hot, but that can't last forever, and the Tigers have no ability to beat the Indians and they have a bunch of games left.

If Sale makes his 32nd start on Oct. 2, he could throw 230 innings this year.

They're really trying to get Sale's Cy case built. I'm not against it, but in the end, he'll come up short probably.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Sep 16, 2016 -> 09:53 PM) The Royals have checked out mentally, evidenced by their complete annihilation by the A's for four consecutive home games this week. Not quiiting, but their fight is gone...like the Sox in mid May. Completely agree, and that's why the Sox finishing .500 is a possibility- and absolutely won't mean s*** to me.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 16, 2016 -> 09:50 PM) Sanchez with the bomb. Nice. Folks, Robin might have saved his job which is scary. The Sox had a 100-game stretch this year where they went 40-60. He's done.

QUOTE (Insp @ Sep 16, 2016 -> 09:23 PM) Interesting how once the team is not doing as well, the boo birds all come out to post. Tired bit. Come up with something else.

I like Saladino in a rebuilding year situation. He's versatile, and could put up decent numbers. Lawrie is a definite Non tender candidate.

Britton with another save tonight. Good chance he's winning the Cy this year, especially if the Orioles get in.

Hawk talking about the schedule is ridiculous. He has no idea what he's talking about. Wait until he notices next year's schedule ends with 46 games in 48 days....and that's without the possibility of doubleheaders. There's always something to complain about. Meanwhile...Chris Sale...

Abreu .302 Sale no hits through 3. 34 pitches.

16 games left for everyone. Bos 82-64 Bal 80-66 Tor 80-66 Det 78-68 Sea 78-68 NY 77-69 Hou 76-70 KC 74-72 This weekend: NY at Bos Tor at LAA TB at Bal Det at Cle Hou at Sea Sox at KC

Honestly, if AJ wants to be on a broadcast, he should immediately be a national guy working for Fox or MLB Network. He's already that good.

Mets, Giants, and Cardinals lost today. Not saying I'm rooting for the Cubs in the first round, but the NL wildcard situation is a joke. If the Giants somehow win the play-in game, and then go on to win the World Series again, it would be a bad look for Baseball.

First 72 games: 28 home 44 road

To start: 6 at home 9 on the road 6 at home 10 on the road 6 at home 10 on the road 6 at home 9 on the road Seriously? Blow. It. Up.

After looking at this schedule, I'm even more for a rebuild.

Sox finish in Cleveland next season, which will no doubt be meaningful games.
