T R U Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 20, 2017 -> 04:32 PM) You realize it's a dome right? Not really a "dome" but the roof will be closed. I went Monday, boring game but Moncada and Giolito were solid. I will be there tomorrow as well and glad I missed Shields and get to see Fulmer.

flavum Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 If the Sox lose this, they'll be worse than the Phillies, but still would have to be a half game worse the rest of the season. I love Abreu, but don't homer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Phillies won, Giants won, Sox lost, Detroit lost 2 game lead on Detroit for the 3rd pick 0.5 game lead on the Phillies for the 2nd pick (Phillies own tie breaker) 1 GB of the Giants for the 1st pick 11 games left for the Sox.

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 (edited) So the Sox now have sole possession of the #2 pick, and by the end of Friday, could have be leaders for the #1 draft pick for 2018. :wub: Edited September 21, 2017 by ChiliIrishHammock24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hi8is Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Man, I wish that we where at this spot going into the final series of the season already... We play Cleveland The Phillies get the Mets The Giants have the Padres Please... please... please.... baseball gods.... allow us to "earn" the first pick. That would give Soxtalk Nation over 8 months to endlessly banter about EVERY SINGLE POSSIBLE DRAFTEE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxmb35 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 (edited) QUOTE (SonofaRoache @ Sep 15, 2017 -> 11:11 AM) We will end up picking 4 or 5 but that's okay. There are no clear cut picks this year anyway. It's more important for Moncada, Jose, Avi, Lucas, Rey, TA and other future pieces to play very well than to get a few picks higher. Lucas pitching well is a blessing because most people wrote him off as a top end starter. If he becomes a solid 2 then we are really on our way with this staff. I wanted to point out how silly this was when it was posted but wasn't able to. Now, it's even sillier. We were a lock to finish top 3 even when this was posted. How you ascertained that we would for sure finish with the 4 or 5 pick (and it being "OK"), I'll never know. 1st pick is in our sights.. don't stop now BOYS!

flavum Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 QUOTE (Jimmy3Putt @ Sep 21, 2017 -> 05:53 AM) Wait, didn't the Giants have a better record than us last year? Shouldn't that give us the tie breaker with them? Yes. The Sox are a game behind (ahead) the Giants now. Even in wins, two in the loss column. Any combination of Sox losses and Giants wins equal to 11 gives the Sox a better pick. Same against the Phillies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
