The Guardians finish one game ahead of the White Sox for the AL Central crown. And the White Sox take the third AL Wild Card spot via a tiebreaker with the Rangers. The Guardians would get a first-round bye, the No. 3 seed Astros would face the No. 6 seed White Sox in the Wild Card Series, and the Rangers would head home for the offseason.mlb.comHow about White Sox go 4-1 and f*** everyone else?

In most other careers, Vlad is totally right, you get paid based on your level of experience and qualifications and not necessarily your anticipated production. Not so in sports. Maybe Vlad should know better or maybe competent management should relay that directive to their employees.

This was all there for them to see in plain daylight.
5 hours ago5 hr One more scenario, if we win the AL central, we will clinch the bye with an Astros loss and a Rangers loss today.

4 hours ago4 hr In full jersey get up for remote PT conference tonight. Luckily ends before first pitch.

4 hours ago4 hr Take away the throwing arm of the Royals starting pitcher. Grichuk should be playing everyday. Coulson should sit. Start Meidroth at SS and Antonacci at 2b.
4 hours ago4 hr unless Grichuk is hurt, there's no good reason for this lineup. Are we trying to win or not?
4 hours ago4 hr What would the Sox have had to give up for Foster Griffin? Edited 4 hours ago4 hr by joejoesox

4 hours ago4 hr Could be historic tonight. Clinch a playoff spot, and Kolson is a golden sombrero away from tying the all time k record.

3 hours ago3 hr 7 minutes ago, joejoesox said:2 bad starts out of 8. he's been goodYep, 2 of his 8 starts are where he gave up the majority of his runs (13 ER) with the Guardians that have made his overall numbers look bad with them. But I can’t imagine he would have been worse than Castillo if the Sox had traded for him instead. Edited 3 hours ago3 hr by WhiteSox2023
