Here we go.

Yay?

They didn't suck.  Woo!

SOX WIN!!!!!

SOX WIN!!!

Last at bat for Correa with the Twins at home.

FA push time.  Strong September numbers.

A lot depends on whether Trea Turner and Swanson re up with the Dodgers and Braves.

That was so EZ.

Yeah, I feel absolutely nothing.

One of the Twins beat writers in earlier in the week thought for sure he’s going to the Cubs

Wait, so Hendriks can get a ground ball against Arraez?

Hendriks upping his trade value I guess?  Third in AL saves.

Two eight game losing streaks this year, the first one in April really took the wind out of the sails for 2022 after the 6-2 start.

July 2017 Sox last nine games losing streak.

Late error and a wild pitch save Sox. Ironic, since that's how they lose most games.  Ineptitude from both teams.

Didn't have to face Buxton.

Poor Madrigal.

Probably ends up back with the Sox at this rate.  Hoerner/Morel both ahead of him right now.

Heard Andrus to the Twins.  Lewis out and don't want to move Polanco back.

Wow, I never thought when I started this little thing called Today's Game Thread that I would have the honor to do it all again tomorrow.  I'd like to personally thank each and every one of you that made this thing happen:

Oh joy.

Good for Mark Payton. He may be more useful than Engel, at least with the bat.

Also at about 15-20% of the cost.  He won't have an options which is unfortunate, so he may not survive the offseason on the 40 man.  But yes, Engel should be non-tendered. 

 

So we're back in the hunt right?

Tony certainly didn't think so. 

Cubs are going to be 6-0 against the Phillies.  Crazy.

That means 2/3 or a sweep on the road of SD.  Last three could go in any of a number of directions with these Twins and Sox.

Stranger things have happened, but wouldn't bet on it.
