ScootsMcGoots Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 Idk which team is worse to be a fan of right now. Sox, Angels, A's, Mets, Padres, Royals or Rockies. All of those are pretty damn horrific. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Side Hit Men Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 The two division races are far more exciting than any wild card race. Texas looked like they were in big trouble after losing key players including Scherzer, but have bounced back this weekend in Seattle. If the red hot Royals hang on, Texas and Houston are tied entering Sunday. Houston and Texas travel to Seattle the final week, Texas playing Anaheim and Houston traveling to Arizona for their other opponents. Meanwhile, Tampa also looked for dead after losing Wander Franco, but they are battling to the end. They travel to Boston and Toronto to close the season, with Baltimore getting the easier slate on paper hosting Washington and Boston to close out their season.

flavum Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 If the Mariners beat the Rangers today, the Astros would be out of the playoffs, going to Seattle and Arizona this week. The Royals swept in Houston. Astros went 39-42 at home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 Mariners are going to be eliminated from AL West contention after tonight. Rangers magic number will be 2 on the Astros. AL playoff picture likely won’t change from what it is now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
