If the Sox can't make it, want Tampa vs. Milwaukee or Cincinnati among the teams with +1% current odds. Tampa Bay Rays vs. Bishop Sycamore. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lostfan Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 I had plans to go to Vegas to see the Bears w/my friend but she wanted to pivot towards the White Sox playoffs (and I agreed). As of right now it looks like they'd be playing Houston - we're both from Chicago obviously and she lives in Houston, so that'd work, but damn, the Astros beat us like we stole something this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This team is so streaky...I really think if they do not have a 1st round exit, they will make the WS....in that case I don't know if they win it all this year but I'd love to have the chance.

No clue. .608 second half winning percentage, coming off an 18-8 record in August. If their algorithm weights “how are you playing lately”, that would do it.

But respect is still earned and their recent success over the years goes for something. We can change the narrative about us starting in a few weeks.
