93-67, 1 game up on the White Sox for home field advantage. We just have to win one of the next two games to keep the #2 position.
Blackburn 1-3, 4.71 OI 6-7, 4.14

93-67, 1 game up on the White Sox for home field advantage. We just have to win one of the next two games to keep the #2 position. Blackburn 1-3, 4.71 OI 6-7, 4.14 Let's see if there is any sense of urgency now that we donated last night's game to them. Three errors, hit batters, wild pitches, passed balls.......all went into one of the sloppiest games we've played all year. It looked like we were satisfied with clinching the division and last night's game was not important. The White Sox that is great at home and struggles on the road. We can't afford to blow the two seed by resting players and playing sloppy. If we lose the two seed, we will be very fortunate to win the division series.

It would be nice to get home field advantage and hopefully win the first two at home. That would mean we would only have to win 1 of 3, two in Chicago and one at home.

Since the Astros will be playing the White Sox and Tampa Bay will play the winner of the WC playoff. Does TB play to win tomorrow to make it harder on NY since right now NY has a half-game lead? If they, NY lose tomorrow that would put them with 71 losses. IF both Seattle and Toronto win today and tomorrow that will put a 3 Way tie for the second spot. Baseball would love it and the Yankee haters even more and the loser in the Bronx would go into meltdown

And I thought the Astros were the only team choking. Boston had a chance to tie Yankee's for the #1 spot in the WC and so far they have managed 3 hits through 8 innings and allowed the Nationals to tie in the 8th at 1

How cool would it be to end up with a 4 way tie for the wild card?

The gods gave Jake a 4th inning pitched. Does he have two more left?

Dusty became my hero for pulling Jake. Sit down, you dumbass.

I know it doesn't mean anything to us, but pitchers do still like Wins. Pulling Odorizzi out at 4.2 innings with a 3-run lead and no baserunners on? Almost feels like Dusty is trying to stick it to him.

This is the ONE time Dusty should have given him a chance to finish the 5th and you think it's a good move simply because you don't like Odorizzi. Dusty is dead WRONG to pull him with two outs and the bases empty in the 5th. Give a shot to get the final out and pick up a win. This is one time Odorizzi could say this is bullshit and be right. Dusty shit the bed again.

Also keeps Odorizzi at a losing record for the year.
