15 hours ago15 hr I imagine A’s/Guardians series will go exactly as we expect.All the more reason for the Sox to just take care of their own business.
15 hours ago15 hr Rangers lose. Back to 2 games up on the 2nd wild card team with a tiebreaker. That's big for our overall postseason hopes.

Do they really need to throw their best pitcher against the A's to win?
14 hours ago14 hr Jesus, that Rangers loss was HUGE. Vaulted us up 13% points to almost 80% again from 2/3 odds. Edited 14 hours ago14 hr by chitownsportsfan

Vaulted us up 13% points to almost 80% again from 2/3 odds.Yup, it basically forces the 3 teams chasing us in the wild card race to be near perfect down the stretch. We're effectively 3 games up with 9 to play on Toronto and Texas.What's sad is that we'd be in the same spot for the division had we just closed out the game on Tuesday.

14 hours ago14 hr Texas has seemingly hovered around in that -6 to E space all yearvery similar to Sox no long streaks either way
