caulfield12 Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 (edited) Apparently word is going out that the Tigers are now again willing to listen on Price, Cespedes, Soria, Rajai Davis and Avila. Not sure about Kinsler...he hasn't had that great of a season, so probably if the right offer came along for him as well.

chitownsportsfan Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 (edited) Looks like you can go ahead and put another loss down for the the Twinkies. Down 7 they are down to their final 2 outs with nobody on. Edited July 29, 2015 by chitownsportsfan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing going against the Sox is that they're red hot now...and then they have to be the best team of the bunch the final 62 games too. It would be a great thing if they can get these last two games, and then have a solid 4-2 vs Yankees and Rays. Then, we're in business. Damn trade deadline is too early.

flavum Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Every AL team has played at least 100 except the Sox... 100-game records... KC 61-39 NY 57-43 Hou 55-45 LAA 55-45 Min 52-48 -- Bal 51-49 Tor 50-50 Sox 50-50 or 49-51 TB 49-51 Det 48-52 Tex 48-52 Cle 46-54 Sea 46-54 Bos 44-56 Oak 44-56 I'm going to assume the worst team after 100 games has never been as high as 44-56 before.

SEA@MIN, get hot for 3 games SEA Since they're starting on a Thursday, one would guess that's 4 games at Minny. Bad luck for the White Sox here, no Felix Hernandez in a four-gamer. JA Happ vs. Hughes T. Walker (rough last four starts) vs. Milone Montgomery (also rough the last four after dominating) vs. Gibson Iwakuma vs. Pelfrey Yankees FRI-SUN Rodon vs. TBA Danks vs. TBA Samardzija vs. TBA Most likely scenario, Twins split and the White Sox take 2/3. Twins leading by 2. However, with how hot the Yankees are (yes, so are we) and Rodon/Danks both going, anything's possible on the positive or negative side. About the only thing we can predict ahead of time is that Samardzija will go 7+ innings for the 10th or 11th straight time.

flavum Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Twins are the first AL team done with interleague play. They went 8-12. 44-36 against AL teams, 21-14 against the AL East and West. .600 ball outside the division isn't going to last. Remaining Twins schedule outside the division, 30 games: 4 vs Sea 4 at Tor 3 vs Tex 3 at NY 4 at Bal 3 at TB 3 vs Hou 3 at Hou 3 vs LAA If the Twins finish over .500, I'll be surprised. The road trip to NY, Bal, and TB will be their big test. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
