The Rangers have 4 games left and the Pirates have 4 games left. A combination of Rangers losses or Pirates wins equaling 7 or 8 means the Rangers would sneak into the top position. Of course, that simply cannot happen. Can it?

I almost don’t want the pressure of picking first and possibly screwing that up. Second is easy because you would likely take rocker if the team ahead of you picks Leiter and Leiter if the team ahead of you picks rocker. So if one of them is underwhelming, at least you kind of have an excuse.

No reason for Oder playing.
And your point would be? ha ha ha............This whole love affair, or bullheadedness, the organization has shown for Odor is not even understandable, much less justifiable to me at this junction.......I know JD screwed up to begin with by giving him WAY too much money, but it is what it is, and what it is, is a horrid mistake on JD's part IMO.
Good read
I thought this was an interesting read for sure. But what immediately came into my head when finished was the old story of making chicken salad out of chickenshit.

My point is to give Solak as much time as possible at 2b b/c Oder likely won't start next.

Are you sure it wasn't lemonade out of lemons? :nod:
