Ken Dryden Posted Tuesday at 12:48 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 12:48 PM It looks like the Braves need to sweep the Mets then take two of three against the Royals to at least tie the Mets for the final wild card spot, which they would earn because of head to head competition. The odds are against them due to their inconsistent pitching, but who knows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mets at Milwaukee won't be easy for them, and KC is in a major swoon that they are running out of time to reverse. The Braves aren't in the spot they'd want to be but I don't think their odds are that bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghost of miles Posted Tuesday at 03:14 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 03:14 PM Detroit’s finishing up with a homestand against the middling Rays and the gawdawful White Sox… I like their chances for staying in the postseason WC lane. 15 hours ago, JSngry said: Yeah, fuck that guy. Co-sign. And still miss the early/mid 1970s A’s, which was right around the time that I began to follow baseball. I need to look for a good book about that team and era. 1973 A’s-Mets was the first World Series I remember watching, and it was a good ‘un.

Both Milwaukee and Cleveland have had very quiet, but damn good, seasons. See ya' Amy! OMG!!! Padres clinch WC slot on a triple play! They better get that closer back on track though... TRIPLE PLAY!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghost of miles Posted 4 hours ago Report Share Posted 4 hours ago Congrats to the Detroit Tigers, who clinched an AL wild-card spot tonight after being 55-63 on August 11 (they’ve been 31-11 since). And condolences to the team they defeated, the Chicago White Sox, who have now displaced the 1962 NY Mets as holders of the worst-ever MLB season record.

JSngry Posted 3 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 3 hours ago Kudos to the ChiSox for sweeping the Angels, though. And sympathies to Wash, unless they were tanking for a draft pick, in which case, sucks to be him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sincerely hope that Hinch is viewing this, being able to build a core of kids as a group (literally, most of the rookies have come up together through the minors) as a personal cleansing of that shitshow he had in Houston. We'll see what happens going forth, both in the post-season and in the years hence/Hinch, but unless/until it gets dark, all I can say is that I stumbled into this team because mine died early, came back for Jason Benetti, and started noticing a bunch of kids I had never even heard of playing crisp baseball that only got crisper the deeper into the season they went. I'll take crisp, always! Plus, Detroit. Now that I got family there and have seen the city a bit...yeah, Tigers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted 2 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 2 hours ago Oh yeah, the Tigers owner is a pig and is responsible for a lot of the destruction of historic Detroit, especially Black Detroit. Most sports owners appear to be pigs. Not that that's any excuse. But the less I see of him, the more I can think of the team itself.
