flavum Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Sep 3, 2017 -> 05:00 PM) We might catch Detroit, they are really really bad. The four game series in Detroit is scary. A split would be nice. Again, four losses per week, the Sox will have #3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Sunday: Won- Phillies, White Sox, Braves Lost- Giants, Reds, A's, Tigers, Mets Teams from 4th to 8th went 2-14 this weekend. 28 days left Team (Games left) - Sox Magic Number to have higher pick: 1. Phillies(26) - 30 2. Giants(23) - 27 3. White Sox(27) 4. Reds(25) - 24 5. A's(26) - 24 6. Tigers(26) - 23 7. Mets(26) - 23 8.

Dominikk85 Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 I think the one pick is gone to the Phillies. Now just make sure the A's or reds don't overtake you. 2 or 3 is a very nice pick but it would suck to fall to 4 or 5 because then the options and also the bonus pool money gets quite a bit worse.

I've pretty much given up on 1 or 2. The Sox would basically need to lose 10 in a row right now. If the Sox go 11-16, then teams behind them would need these records to have a higher pick: Reds 7-18 A's 7-19 Tigers 6-20 Mets 6-20 Braves 5-22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonard Zelig Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Sep 2, 2017 -> 12:03 PM) If I am not mistaken, standings are based on winning %, not just team wins. Soo....yes, I will continue to count both, as both as needed to determine standings, and thus draft order. Standings are not based on winning %. A team that is 10-0 has the same winning % as a team that is 8-0, but one team is a game behind in the standing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 People keep talking about winning percentage, but unless there is a team that isn't making up games, all teams will eventually play 162 games for the season. Do any teams have games they aren't making up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 You have to admire how bad the 2013 white sox were when you see us trying to lose and may not even do it as effectively as that team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
