August 31, 20214 yr I had plans to go to Vegas to see the Bears w/my friend but she wanted to pivot towards the White Sox playoffs (and I agreed). As of right now it looks like they'd be playing Houston - we're both from Chicago obviously and she lives in Houston, so that'd work, but damn, the Astros beat us like we stole something this year

We’re a different team.

With our whole team intact...we can beat anyone.

This team is so streaky...I really think if they do not have a 1st round exit, they will make the WS....in that case I don't know if they win it all this year but I'd love to have the chance.

September 11, 20214 yr I have no idea how they think the Braves are a better team than Chicago. No clue.
September 11, 20214 yr These are Baseball Reference odds, the same site that had the Twins as the favorite to win the division as late as June.
