First pick, bitches!!

White Sox already won and Phils are up 9-0 in the 2nd. That top pick is looking more and more like a likelihood at this point.

The Giants were the first team to make it to 90 losses on September 12th and are still the only team with 90 losses (although the Phillies are one loss away). The White Sox are 7-7 this month so they are falling out of contention. The free falling Tigers may be a new threat to the number one pick, however.

The White Sox are falling out of it, so until they start showing more drive to compete, I will not show their number any more...

could be a nail biter to reach 100... 11 gms to go with the g's 3:2 in 7mid...

assuming (big assumption) a win tonight, they'll need to drop 7/10 - doable, but it'll take some effort

I have faith in these guys. They are capable of big things!

there's no glory in 99... go big or go home

 

[calsnowskier]

I don't know that I want 100 losses. I want the top pick, but 100 is just going to be a constant reminder for these guys the rest of their lives. And they don't deserve that.

But if we need the century for the top pick, sorry fellas...
