JUGGERNAUT Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 Man I f***ing hate the Twins.....why cant they DIE!!!! They are pretty scary right now. The worst thing that could happen for SOX fans has. They are de-weeding the lawn so to speak. Placed pitcher Rick Reed on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to August 18, with a lower back strain; optioned outfielder Michael Restovich to Rochester of the International League (AAA); purchased the contract of pitcher Carlos Pulido from Rochester; recalled catcher Rob Bowen from Rochester; announced that pitcher James Baldwin declined his assignment and elected to become a free agent. 22-12 since the break.

southsider2k5 Posted August 24, 2003 Share Posted August 24, 2003 Sox lose Twins beat KC 8-1, so we lead KC by a game, and the Twins by 1 1/2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rex Kickass Posted August 25, 2003 Share Posted August 25, 2003 I think more scarily, the Tigers also win and gain ground... don't forget to look over our shoulders - They are only 36 games back! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JUGGERNAUT Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 Ahhhhhh ... it feels so good to do the update today Magic Numbers SOX: 163 - 61 - 54 = 48 KCR: 163 - 60 - 54 = 49 MIN: 163 - 58 - 54 = 51 Any combination of 48 SOX wins or losses by both (KC & MIN) & the SOX win the division! I had a feeling that KC would struggle vs TAM because Pinella has them playing better of late (winning 7 of last 10). As you can see MIN is still within striking distance having won 7/10 as well. For you sCrUB fans: SOX .530 winning %, sCrUBs .518 winning %. :fthecubs :sosasucks ME SOOOOOO HAPPPPYYYY!!!!! ALC Magic Numbers: SOX: 163-67-61= 35 MIN : 163-66-61= 36 KCR: 163-65-61= 37 Baseball has not seen such a close divisional race in MANY a year! Party hardy dudes & smack the Rangers with Cotts on the mound! And for you sCrUB fans back a REAL team! SOX .523 winning %, sCrUBs 516% :fthecubs Magic Numbers SOX: 163 - 69 - 62 = 32 KCR: 163 - 67 - 62 = 34 MIN.: 163 - 67 - 62 = 34 I hope Manuel doesn't screw this up! 15 gms shaved in 15 days. Nice.

JUGGERNAUT Posted August 30, 2003 Share Posted August 30, 2003 Get off Manuels case there fella. You've pushed me over the edge. I'm starting a TRACK MANUEL's BLUNDER thread. It's not hard to find media coverage of them. They show up in the game reports. You don't have to take my word for it, because it will be right there in the game logs. It's not too hard. Just search through the losses. I would say so far, he's factored in at least 10 losses with 5 being momentum busters. NYY, & OAK are the most notable in the 2nd half.

JUGGERNAUT Posted August 31, 2003 Share Posted August 31, 2003 I just have to hope for the best: the SOX overcome Manuel's stupidity. It won't be easy. Both the Twinks & the SOX have 27 victories since the break. Magic Numbers: SOX: 163 - 72 - 63 = 28 MIN: 163 - 71 - 63 = 29 KCR: 163 - 70 - 64 = 29 I think it's time to call Mr Soprano to help us out for a pc of the action. For sCrUB fans: SOX 72-64 .529 CUB 69-65 .515 :fthecubs :sosasucks :puke back a REAL team! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm revising the MN formula because as long as ea. team plays 162 gms, the team with the fewest losses will win the div. Magic Numbers: SOX:137GP:73W-64L: 163 - 73 - 65 = 25 = -4 on both teams. KCR:135GP:70W-65L: 163 - 70 - 64 = 29 MIN:137GP: 71W-66L: 163 - 71 - 64 = 28 SOX have a 4GM edge on the Magic Number on both KCR & MIN. Now this is where it REALLY gets fun! If the SOX win the series against MN & KC, they can shave 20 gms off the MN. This is all within their control. Then they just need to win 5/11 vs BOS, CLE, & NYY. They are the only team in the ALC that completely controls it's own destiny. Prediction: KC will finish with 161 GP. Book it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JUGGERNAUT Posted September 2, 2003 Share Posted September 2, 2003 Yet another method to track the race: WINS to CLINCH. This is essentially GL+(MN differential). WINS to CLINCH: SOX = 21W KCR = 25W MNT = 25W As you can see our opponents are on the edge of lose control of their own destiny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JUGGERNAUT Posted September 3, 2003 Share Posted September 3, 2003 Believe it or Not there was progress made with the KC loss. SOX:138GP:73W-65L: 163 - 73 - 66 = 24 = -4 on both teams. KCR:136GP:70W-66L: 163 - 70 - 65 = 28 MIN:138GP: 72W-66L: 163 - 72 - 65 = 26 Unfortunately, MIN made progess too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
