The AL wild card race is set up to be pretty ****ing awesome.



In the meantime, I'll be rooting for the Twins to hold on to their top-5 draft pick.

They're certainly playing like they will.

So they will have a one game playoff to determine who can play in the game playoff to determine who makes the Division series?

Can you link me the rules? I can't find them for this new format.

You got it.

I actually found more info on it.

I think it is safe to say we are going to be seeing some tiebreaker games.

Strasburg scratched due to forearm tightness.

Re: 9/9 - 9/15 Game Discussion Thread

It seems like most people have just forgotten about the A-Rod suspension and now the Yankees are right back in the playoff race, and he's a big component of that. It could have bad effects for him in the long run, but him appealing the suspension is working out extremely well for the Yanks thus far.

The A's are seriously scaring me. I wouldn't want the Sox to face them in the ALCS.

Re: 9/9 - 9/15 Game Discussion Thread

I'm almost banking on the Rangers to blow their lead, they are not playing well and the rest of their schedule does not favor them at all.

3 against the red hot A's, then four against Tampa, and 3 against the Royals.

The Orioles schedule is terrifying. 6 games left against the Red Sox, and a four game series against the Rays.

I really think this is gonna come down to Tampa, NYY, and Cleveland.

The Indians have a creampuff of a schedule coming up, their destiny is really in their own hands.

This is gonna get crazy.

I don't think they have the testicular fortitude to do it, but KC is very alive too, they could really shake it up with Cleveland, and then they play a flailing Texas team, and then it's really breezy after that.

Re: 9/9 - 9/15 Game Discussion Thread

And the Rangers rally ends with a blown call at 3rd. 9-8 Oakland going to the 9th.


Edit: Now it's a full blown #umpshow

Re: 9/9 - 9/15 Game Discussion Thread

The Yankees bullpen has an outstanding 6.33 era in it's last 14 games, and an equally impressive -0.3 WAR, which I actually anticipated to be worse.

Re: 9/9 - 9/15 Game Discussion Thread

I think Indians are a shoe-in for a WC. I think last spot is between NYY and Tampa.

Texas meh
