Seattle isn't going to overtake the division.

The blue jays have a 12 game stretch coming up against Washington, Colorado, Oakland, and Kansas City.
Sure, then they finish with Texas, Boston, and 6 each against the Yankees and Devil Rays, but they can build a lead back up with the crap teams they are facing first.

There's a reason they are currently at 58% odds of making the playoffs while Seattle is sitting at 49% despite the M's currently being a half game up.

M's still have the Dodgers and Reds on the schedule as well as 12 more games against Houston and the Rangers.

They have little margin for error. They fucked around all year and with any sort of trip up the rest of the way will find out.

Reds should be listed as hard ones as well. M's are on the road there and Reds too are fighting for a WC slot.

1 Game at a time !
Absolutely

Worry about their own game(s) - Fight like hell to win every damn game they can and in another month they can start looking at the standings the final 2 weeks of the season.

They are playing well enough to win most games, so keep it up and hope HOU or TX falls back to them and we make things really interesting all of Sept !!

Left handed..but .young fits..that profile..
In .that case .they will prob..fill with free agents..
To change my thinking a bit..

Reds bringing up. Nolve marte..
So mariners may play against him..in September...

Teams must go one game at a time. There's no reason fans and media can't or shouldn't look forward.

One bright side of this run is that we aren't far removed from having a roughly 15% chance of making the playoffs.

I'm not sure what would be better for the future of the team. Make the playoffs and have an early exit or barely miss the playoffs and hopefully have some urgency in the offseason. I worry that merely making the playoffs is the equivalent of a World Series win to the front office right now. If they make the playoffs, I worry that we'll have another offseason of complacency.

Even being close will still pull people into seats thee last few weeks and line their pockets.

I'm not sure what it will take to get them to actually care about going for a WS run. They've had one of the best pitching staffs which is the harder part of the team to build. It's 100% lack of spending holding them back and they just don't care.
