Going back to this… this Sunday Bears at Browns same time as Sox/Indians Sox season finale on 10/3 vs Tigers will start in the 3rd quarter of Lions/Bears.

Highs in the 50s with 20-30 mph winds tomorrow in Cleveland. Good training for the ALCS and World Series.

No. Monday’s game is 12:10 central.

Monday’s game will be the most ignored game in the history of baseball. Ha.

I’m definitely in favor of no divisions/balanced schedule and let the seeds fall where they should, but this is the whole point of having divisions matter. If you don’t win, you’re a wildcard no matter what the record is.

Lopez/Burr Cease Lynn Giolito another bullpen game on Monday Rodon and Keuchel vs Reds Tigers- Cease, Lynn, Giolito/Rodon get a couple innings each in the finale I’m going Lynn and Giolito on Thursday and Friday in the playoffs.

Astros would have to beat the Rays at least twice next week to have a shot a the 1-seed, and the tie breaker would go to them, so their Magic number on the Rays is 13. Rays- 1 vs Tor, 3 vs Mia, 3 at Hou, 3 at NY Astros- 2 at Laa, 3 at Oak, 3 vs TB, 3 vs Oak

Start a new thread tomorrow. Different date. Different team. Fresh thread for clinch day!

I’ll definitely be rooting for the Cardinals to beat the Dodgers, because they’re the champs and it potentially helps the Sox. If it’s the Giants in the wildcard, I’d rather see them make it, and have a LA-SF division series.

TB-Hou play each other next Tue-Thu, so you never know. Good for the Sox if they’re really pushing to win by taxing their pitching staffs.

If the Sox make the World Series, it means their plan worked. If MLB wants to eliminate divisions, and play a balanced schedule so teams have to go for a “Top 3”, bring it on.

Astros 2-seed magic number is 6. Rays 1-seed magic number is 9. Kinda sucks the Sox lose the off day on Monday, but whatever. Guessing they’ll make the Royals go back to Cleveland too after they get rained out tonight. Tomorrow is clinch day.

No, still 2 because they would play it if they had to. They’ll probably call it postponed tomorrow, and then cancel once the Astros clinch the 2-seed. When the Sox beat the Indians on Thursday, it’s over because it’s a Sox win and an Indians loss.

Hopefully the games in Detroit and Cleveland get cancelled tomorrow. Yes, cancelled; not postponed. Win it on the field on Thursday.

Now 7. If the Indians lose tonight, Tigers will be tied for second. However, Tigers are eliminated already because they’ve played more games.

Take two, they’re small

Gapper would be nice

They’ll be celebrating in the clubhouse in 48 hours. And then they’ll lose the second game 9-0.

The Sox are clinching Thursday. Guarantee it.

I agree with a lot of stuff here, but this thread would be hilarious to read if they make the World Series. I’m hoping for that.

Fact

Manager of the Year has always been and always will be a bullshit award.

Gotta lose today. Win on the field in Cleveland on Thursday. More fun.

Hey, he got thru 5. Now let’s get some runs, ya pansies.

Of course no 1-2-3 inning. Why would there be?
