I will be back for the post-mortem on this one after it ends, which at the very best will be a very quiet 1st round exit. Actually, this team probably loses the division to Oakland and then loses the wildcard game to whomever they play.
Angels will complete the sweep tonight. Then Oakland will take 2 out of 3, forcing a 1 game playoff, which Texas will lose. Texas will then either lose a wildcard tiebreaking game, or lose the wildcard game itself. Doesn't really matter.
Its extremely difficult to go to a WS 3 straight years. But this team had a shot. Unfortunately, Wash is their manager, and they've been on cruise control most of the season. Just look at the baserunning gaffes in game 158. Unbelievable.
I just hope someone takes the Angels out of the playoffs. Blowing this lead like we're about to and watching the Angels win the WS is my worst sports nightmare.
Trying to stay positive, but everyone with eyes sees it. Its just not gonna happen, this team looks dead.
