flavum Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 I tried to stay optimistic there would be a positive swing in the standings before the weekend, but it’s not happening. Sox elimination # will be 14 if they lose on Thursday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreenSox Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 Sox need to sweep Cleveland too; and then 4/6 against Minny and I think that will get us both tiebreakers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but more disappointing is the fact that the Sox are trailing the Guardians by so much at this point in the season that they need to rely on other teams to get the job done for them.

So what are we looking at? Civale vs Cease McKenzie vs Lynn Bieber vs Giolito With the off day Monday, sox could bump Giolito again and match Bieber up with Cueto.

PorkChopExpress Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 Twins are burning through their bullpen tonight. That’s not going to bode well with 5 games over the next 4 days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both of those pens are gonna be fried after the series regardless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 I’ll go with Sox 2-1, Cle 3-2 Still three back when the series starts. Hopefully Cease is on, and then Cleveland starts feeling the pressure, and the Sox somehow sweep and get the tiebreaker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenSox Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 (edited) I can think of scenarios where it would be best if the Twins swept or went 4-1, or if the Guardians did the same, or even if they went 2/3 or 3/2; it just all swirls my mind. I think it comes down to is sweep the Guardians and the Sox will take the division; anything less and the Sox sit. One thing that would have helped, but it appears not to be, is for the Padres to have clinched a playoff spot prior to our series.

One thing that would have helped, but it appears not to be, is for the Padres to have clinched a playoff spot prior to our series. The best thing for the White Sox would be the Guardians losing as many as possible. The White Sox have 6 left against the Twins and 3 left against the Guardians. The White Sox can knock the Twins out on their own. They can’t overcome a 4 loss deficit against the Guardians without help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, even if the Sox go 2-1 against the Guardians, we're still 3 out on the loss column, with no tiebreakers. And as for the Guardians "tough" series against the Rays, well, the worst-record wild card team gets to play the weakest opponent, the Central winner; losing that series isn't such a bad thing for the Rays. I just don't see the Sox winning this without a sweep. However, if Guardians win 3 or more against the Twins, the Twins are buried. And then the Sox get to face a demoralized Twins team for 6 games.

I feel like our chances with 6 games left with them than staying 3 behind Cleveland and needing to sweep them. Followed by praying for KC to win.
