flavum Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Lynn vs Snell Padres magic number for 6-seed is 1 on the Brewers. They play at 1, so the Padres may clinch mid game. 5-seed magic number on the Phillies is 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted October 2, 2022 Author Share Posted October 2, 2022 As soon as the Padres clinch, they should lose as much as possible to get on the other side of the bracket as the Dodgers. I’m starting to understand why teams with higher seeds should be able to choose an opponent. It shouldn’t be a better thing to be a 6-seed than a 5-seed.

I've been thinking the first round series should be 3 vs 5 and 4 vs 6. Your incentive to finish 4th instead of 5th is getting to host in the first round, and your incentive to finish 5th instead of 6th is avoiding the #1 seed in the second round.

Dick Allen Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Moncada now 0 for 11 with 9 strikeouts vs. Snell. Why he is batting second is anyone's guess, but Cairo can't be the guy making out the line up next year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 This is the game one might expect the Sox to just go through the motions to get it over a quickly as possible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 (edited) Minnesota not exactly pushing the Sox down the stretch but a sweep to end things wouldn't be a total shocker, either. Edited October 2, 2022 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought they already had enough of those starting in April instead of waiting for the schedule to get easy or it's still early.

Timmy U Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 This inning is a perfect example of why the Sox don’t score more runs. Lead off double, long fly out, medium fly out… no advance. Corpseball 2.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Side Hit Men Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Elvis Andrus will finish with a higher White Sox bWAR than Tim Anderson (1.6 through Saturday vs. 1.3 for Anderson) despite playing nearly double the number of games (Tim 79, Elvis 39 plus the last four games). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
