MLB Daily Thread: AL West Race getting really interesting

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Thanks, Giants.....keep it goin'



Mets now up by 2 games for the HFA against the Dodgers? in the NLDS.

Texas gotta be tight. They're probably thinking they better not lose today or tomorrow.

Agreed. Important not to lose any ground in the standings these next two days. Moving up a game or two would be huge.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Angels are clearly more dangerous in a one game playoffs than the Stros or Twins. The comments I made had to do strictly with the 1 game playoffs.

If Houston uses Keuchel, I'd fear them more.

They can't save him for the Yanks. Unless by some miracle they clinch by Friday. He is scheduled to pitch Saturday and the AL Wildcard is Tuesday so either he's going on 2 days rest or they gotta go with someone else

Nice matchup tonight here in SF.

Mad Bum v. Kershaw

Go Giants!!

That is at least the third time this season that they've started the same game. I think the two teams have split. Also recall Bumgardner hitting a HR off Kershaw early in the year.

If twins win out they are guranteed to catch 1 of the Angels/Rangers. But they need to pass two of these 3 teams SMH.

We beat Kluber but both the Angels and Stros pull out dog fights vs shit teams. Fuck!! Don't tease me, win by 15 if you are gonna win.

I hear ya. It's better to miss by a mile than an inch, in my opinion.

There is a better chance that come a WC game I pitch than Mike Pelfrey does.

It will be Duffey. Unless we win every game through Saturday and that leads to us somehow clinching a spot. Then maybe Gibson(even though he absolutely fucking shouldn't).

Btw this one gameplayoffs is garbage. I never been for this. Baseball could never do anything right. Had the right idea if adding another team to the playoffs then fuck up the idea by adding the one game playoffs garbage. I don't think any fan will feel like they made the playoffs if their team lose in this trash

 

[chappee11]

More than a long time. And this city is starved for a winner of any kind.

You've waited long enough. That team is scary this year. I hope Tulowitzki comes back in time to help the cause. That's a hell of a piece to add for the playoffs, if so.

I think he's back for the weekend series in Tampa. At the very least as a bench option or DH.

I just hope he can hit better than he was since his trade. He hasn't been terrible, but not great either.

Is This The Half-Naked Blue Jays Fan Who Attacked A Urinal?

 

[Tharvot]

Rangers need to win 2 games here and be done with it.

 

[chappee11]

Yankees are looking good, huh?

 

[chappee11]

Any chance some of these games get played today? Or is it still raining everywhere on the East Coast?

 

[romeo212000]

Gonna have to beat the Angels twice, regardless.

 

[Tharvot]

Gonna have to beat the Angels twice, regardless.

Yup. In a perfect world, the Astros will lose 2 more games and fail to make the playoffs. I hate the Angels but I hate houston even more.

Not looking too good in New York right now. Rained all night and more scheduled for this afternoon, plus a tropical storm is heading up the coast. And most of these games mean jack SQUAT.

Just go ahead and end the season and give us the trophy
