Snopek Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 I could see Dbacks-Dodgers being uneventful (sorry Dbacks), but pretty stoked for the other series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 Still not buying the Twins, but who knows with the way Royce Lewis has been playing plus the added motivation for Correa against his former team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Side Hit Men Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 Updated. One of two 2010s era teams are assured of advancing in the American League.

The Braves went 1-2 against the White Sox with a ā27 Yankees offense. If the team with the buy won 66% of the games, there would be plenty of years where they went 2-2.
