I guess I  should have paid better attention during those lockout negotiations.

It was only about a month ago that I found out there was no longer the possibility of a game 163.

Tonight, I see for the first time that the wildcard series are a 3 game series with the higher seed hosting all 3 games.  Now there's a home field advantage for ya.

Cleveland’s magic number is 7

Sox elimination number is 9 vs Sea (8 vs TB)

Ill say it, other than Naylor (who i would love to have on the Sox), the Guardians are an incredibly likeable team.

Imagine being such an idiot that your sports agent drops you.

No.

Perhaps Cleveland is not likable, but they are better than the White Sox.

I mean, I definitely would have thought that a team with anderson, robert, moncada would have been hell on a team on the basepaths back in 2019.

Instead they all look like Grandal.

Watching the guardians the last two nights just eat us up...it's just like what the f*** is this team. How did they all become this mopey bullshit have to save myself for tomorrow b.s. every day.

I love Abreu. I love TA. But if this is what the teams always look like under them as leaders...good riddance. 

The Twins are about to get swept by the Royals.

Yes. They’re flying home division winners, with nine meaningless home games left.

They probably wont play like it's meaningless.

Does a universe exist where the Sox win the wild card and then beat Cleveland in the playoffs? That would be hilarious

Not any more, they would have had to start a major winning streak after losing the first game or two to Cleveland.

And we’re down to-

Including the Mariners game in progress 

Time of death…just now.
