Does 65-30 sneak in?

Do you mean the rest of the way?

If so, it might be for other teams but much as I like the direction of the Sox no way they go 65-30 the rest of the way.

I'll wait until Fangraphs updates our playoffs odds from 0.0% to 0.1% before I start getting excited again

How about just trying to get to 60 wins.  😂 That would be a huge improvement for this team.

So they're saying we have a chance.

Several weeks ago I declared 56 wins to be my White Sox over/under total for this season. I still stand by that and would bet the over, based on what I have seen to date. I have minimal comfort beyond 56.

Mid 50s looks like a pretty sure bet right now. As usual, Vegas was on it.

I got 50.5 prior to the season.

And i'm not even a big managers-matter guy, but that jump would happen with Venable, Fuller, Bannister all being elite. And our free agency will have to shift, regardless of how much we spend,  from the Hahn era (get what we can) to -- i'm hoping -- a new era of getting what we Need

Which team are you thinking will do that?

I got 49.5. Looked horrible after the 5-19 start. Now it’s looking GREAT! 

No one knows if/when Benintendi, Robert Jr., Tauchman, Houser or others will be traded or other players demoted in favor of replacements so predictions don't mean anything.  Already the current team is far different than the team that accumulated such a poor record to start the season. Most people who actually watch the games are seeing a team that is much improved and fun to watch. Relax...and Go Sox. 

Good things are happening but let's slow down a little here....

If you dream the impossible dream,who knows it might happen.

Yeah.

Take that money and bet it on the Sox to make the playoffs.

Think of how many playoff tix you could buy with the winnings!!

I don’t think that happens today

This is why drugs are bad, kids.

can u buy back your everlasting soul with those ill-begotten gains, is the question. it isn't a rhetorical question because the answer is clearly 'no'.

I would think even the Pope would struggle with that miracle!

It is okay to feel better about the Sox, especially in comparison to the last season. But no way is this a playoff team. 35 games over .500 is not possible.
