Lead is 4.5 / magic number is 30. Astros 34 games left. Mariners 33 games left. If the Astros can manage 17-17, then the Mariners must finish 21-12 to take it.
I don't agree with this. I HOPE and expect them to do better, but the schedule isn't very friendly. 2 @ Bal 3@Phi 4 vs KC 3@Cin 3vs Ari 3vs Oak 3@LAA 3@SD 4vs LAA 3vs Sea 3@Cle
Hold on. Wait a minute. Why would you ever "F the playoffs" if you were... in the playoffs? Are you even remotely familiar with the concept of tournament at all, much less ever watched the Major League Baseball Playoff Tournament?
I don’t care if we go 0-34 the rest of the way if we get in the playoffs and we are healthy with Tucker and Yordan. There isn’t a team in the league without serious flaws.
I don't care if we go 0-34 the rest of the way and have to sign Krusty the Clown and Petrie from A Land Before ****ing Time to replace Tucker and Yordong in the lineup. As long as there is a single game left on the schedule, you do not give up. It is... The entire point... Of this whole thing...
17-17 means we would most likely not sniff the World Series. "F the playoffs" mean I wouldn't expect much at that point. Besides, will be in Southeast Asia for the entire month of October this year, so not going to have time to root for them in either case unfortunately... unless they make it to the World Series.
Where the hell are you King Tuck? Your royal subjects need you, your team needs you, and the City of Houston needs you!!!!!
Last season the Rangers coughed up the division and limped into the playoffs down the stretch. Then got hot and won a WS. Baseball is all about getting hot at exactly the right time.
Well, just say what you mean, then... Because those two things are entirely different. So, are you saying you don't root for the 'Stros to win the games you don't have time to watch?
