MLB Daily Thread: 8.6.15 The Departed?

[TDs3nOut]

Looking at the standings this morning, I think there are only four teams in the AL that are certainly deceased (i.e., cannot reach the playoffs). Looks to be six such teams in the NL.

 

[TDs3nOut]

Not too shabby, in my opinion, that 20 of 30 teams remain kicking and screaming after aboot four months of play!

 

[TDs3nOut]

Biggest surprises among the departed: all four of the AL teams; none of the six NL teams?

Meant to make this The Daily Thread, but forgot to add the prefix. Perhaps a mod can fix it.

Alls I knows is it's August 6th and the Jays are 4.5 back of the Yankees with 6 of their next 9 against them. This is going to be a fun fucking 2 weeks.

Definitely a couple of interesting series. J's seem to have made some nice moves.

Means nothing if they can't get over the Yankees. Has to be the goal here with 13 games against them.

This week's games with the Cubs is going to be exciting(excruciating??) for me. We get them again later this month so it will be interesting to see how it all shakes out!

Cubs have been on blast lately. Those are huge matches.

I can't believe Texas is not only in the thick of the wild card race, but is hanging around their division too. Banister and Jon Daniels have done a hell of a job.

Yanks certainly made it more interesting for me bringing up the kid. Looking forward to some real hitting when these 2 teams meet. And it's 6 in the loss column

Have they put the Panda on a diet? That is one fat sumbitch

Gonna be tough to catch the Yanks. 6 in the loss column and the yanks have 8 or 9 more home games than road and no trips outside the time zone. But the Yanks are always a hair away from losing starters

Injuries will fuck up anybody and the Jays are just as at risk.

Jays have more road games than home games left and they're gonna need their guys to start replicating their RC form on the road if they have any shot of catching the Yankees.

Happy Bday, Wilmer!!!

Yeah, they have a much better chance at getting the Wild Card
