Weakest spot might be RF and that's only because Engel hasn't been healthy all year. Hopefully him or Vaughn get hot

I'll give them the offensive edge since we have 3 "weak spots", they have 2. I would feel a lot more comfortable with our pitching if we had a healthy Rodon capable of still throwing in the upper 90s. He absolutely owned the Astros in his 2 starts against them.

My guess for Friday: 1pmCT (Brewers/Braves); 330pm (Astros/Sox); 6pm (Rays/AL WC); 830pm (Giants/NL WC) We're for sure going to get the afternoon game on Thursday tho, just hoping itll be 3pm or later.

October 1, 20214 yr Braves/Brewers is already on the TBS guide as 3:30 next Friday fwiw. I’m sticking with 3p on Thursday and 2p on Friday on FS1 unless the Yankees and Red Sox are both gone. Edited October 1, 20214 yr by flavum

Don't you expect the schedule to be set Sunday night / Monday am before WC games are played? Would be tough for them to switch game times on people a day or two in advance.

October 1, 20214 yr This is gonna be my guess Thursday: Sox at Houston 3:15, WC winner at Tampa Bay 7:15 Friday: Sox at Houston 3:15, Atlanta at Milwaukee 5:15, WC winner at Tampa Bay 7:15, WC winner at San Francisco 9:15 Sunday: Atlanta at Milwaukee 3:15, WC winner at San Francisco 7:15 Monday: Houston at Sox 3:15, Tampa Bay at WC winner 7:15

Last year on days when there were 4 games they were scheduled like this (in central time): 1:08pmCT; 3:37pmCT; 7:10pmCT; 8:38pmCT and days with 2 games were 3:07pmCT and 7:07pmCT.

Weird. You think they would try to give each game a 3 hour block starting around noon, 3, 6, west coast game at 9.

I'm also going to game 3 in Chicago so Saturday being an off day gives me some much needed cushion. (this is assuming the Sox don't get the 2 seed because that changes my plans completely) Are yall going to the game? I'm in Dallas, was in Houston for the series earlier this year, its not a bad drive.
October 2, 20214 yr If the wild card team beats the Rays, do Sox get home field advantage in ACLS based on seeding 2 vs 4 or records still in play?

October 2, 20214 yr I agree with everyone that Sox will probably not get a night game Thurs or Fri. But damn, everyone's gonna want to see the Astros get beat so it could actually be a high viewership game. Truthfully I just want to be able to watch after work.
October 2, 20214 yr The TV schedule is one reason I don’t discount the regular season for the postseason as much as others on this board. My work really heats up in the fall, and I will probably be able to watch the Sunday game only.

Update: If anyone is interested, this will be the Friday game. I did get Game 3 tickets in Chicago, so if anyone is interested, I will sell these tickets for Game 2 in Houston for list price if anyone is interested.
October 6, 20214 yr Might as well join the party, I have 2 tickets for Friday, section 109 row 36, 19/20. Willing to sell for face value.
