    Would the CWS/A's game going to extra innings help that Astros at all? I figure not give there is a 3 day break.

    2nd place in the divison gets you above the wild card even if you win less games.

    2nd place in west = 6th seed

    Wild card = 7th seed.

    That Oakland ballpark looks like a Texas high school stadium from the 80's

    Well, everyone wanting Oakland is gonna get their wish...

    Not thrilled with it, but either way just gotta get those bats to wake up and keep pitching lights out.

    It was either last year or 2018. I would go to, but he's got a hell of an arm.

    Only if more players get injured as as result. Eloy Jimenez already out. Hendricks threw 50 pitches last game and is likely not available today.... but if it goes into extras, he may have to pitch.

    Hey, aint over yet.

    I don't know. I'd be OK with not having to see Giolito. For me thats an auto L. OAK has less power, missing Chapman and we're more familiar. In the end it proably doesnt matter. Just be ready to throw it all out there.

    Yeah, I want Oakland. Chance to get some payback, maybe some incentive to get our guys a little extra motivation, plus if they beat us, then they really deserved it and we really didn’t. If anyone beats you that many times in a year than it just wasn’t meant to be. Bring it on!

    So I guess the AL Central was pretty overrated. Changes the perception of Biebers 2020 Pitching Triple Crown.
