Or Imagine being a fan of a rival team hoping the team sucks so you can tell other fans of said teams 'I told you so". New posters will be coming out of the the swamp the next few weeks.

Astros are 3 games behind TB and White Sox are 3 behind Astros. TB w 12 left and Sox/Astros w 13. Last 10, Astros hot, WS warm and TB cold.

I wouldn't call it a nightmare. Tampa has 9 home and 6 away but 3 of away are at Houston. TB also has 3 in TB w Miami which may be easiest opponent either one has. I think TB at Houston series may decide seeding.

Agree. As I posted, JR may get gate info and will be happy about the increase.

But JR is in love w TLR. JR sees crowds back on the south side and will want Tony back again in 22

Or win the ALCS and fall short in WS. Or win the ALCS and win the World Series. Or forfeit every game because of Covid outbreak.

Wonder why Philly would be the least? Seems like average beer price is $10-12 just about everywhere.

Good job keeping this updated on your part. Next few weeks will really heat up

Right . But you could also have a team run away with a division and the rest would have nothing to play for. That's why I say you need at least 3 teams in each division to qualify

That is not true. If we returned to the best AL vs best NL format, if a team runs away w their league all the games late in the year would be meaningless. Now if we played even gamesw each team in a division and took the top 3 with 2 vs 3 and winner plays 1 it would still create interest but still reward the best team in each division.

I know Boston is short-handed but "2 out of 3 ain't bad"

Boston's closer was out w Covid so their 10th inning guy was no stud. Travis Shaw who was hitting sub.200 beat us when Mendick and Goodwin didn't.

But coming off Covid break

Hope not. Hendricks limped off

Good news is Sale is out

Agree. There is also the Covid factor.They said Boston had their 14th player affected by Covid. Imagine what that is going to do to teams in the playoffs if key players are lost for a week in October

Boston is one of the worst defensive teams in AL. They made the plays tonight. I saw them against Tampa last week and they were horrible on bad throws and missed cutoffs,

You don't put a guy on IL if he is out for a couple of days, As I said Boston didn't out Martinez on IL because he missed yesterday and today,

Same reason Boston couldn't use Martinez last night or tonight. Banged up but that doesn't send him to IL

Vaughn was not available according to the broadcast.

They didn't hit Vaughn because he was not available. He was banged up according to the broadcast.

TLR manages that pen again.

A lot of bullpen support got the victory. Rodon was really good in his stint.

Agree, it shouldn't even be a factor.

How about Baltimore. They are a poor AAA tewam
