A: Boston win, New York Loss, Chicago Loss, Cleveland Loss
or
B: Boston win, New York Loss, Chicago Loss, Cleveland win
I'm inclined to think it's B, but maybe I'm overstating the "resting the starters" quotient for Chicago.
I propose that the best non-playoff team from the AL gets to take San Diego's place in the JV playoffs.
Which of the following scenarios helps Boston the most:
A: Boston win, New York Loss, Chicago Loss, Cleveland Loss
or
B: Boston win, New York Loss, Chicago Loss, Cleveland win
DEFINITELY A. There's no question. A.
Off to watch the first several innings of this one - thanks Tigers for putting it in the daytime.
So, in other words, any White Sox win, Yankees loss or Red Sox loss tonight guarantees them a playoff spot. The Indians result does not really matter.
So it's a three-way or nothing (hey now).
The first 13 games...
9/13 @TB - Wright v. Waechter (W 17-3)
9/14 @TB - Wang v. Hendrickson
(L)(W 6-5)9/15 @TB - Small v. McClung (W 9-5)
9/16 @TOR - Johnson v. Bush (W 11-10)
9/17 @TOR - Chacon v. Chacin (W 1-0)
9/18 @TOR - Wright v. Lilly (L 5-6)
9/19 vBAL - Wang v. Bedard (W 3-2)
9/20 vBAL - Small v. Maine (W 12-9)
9/21 vBAL - Johnson v. Lopez (W 2-1)
9/22 vBAL - Mussina v. Chen (W 7-6)
9/23 vTOR - Chacon v. Lilly (W 5-0)
9/24 vTOR - Wright v. Downs
(W)(L 4-7)9/25 vTOR - Wang v. Towers (W 8-4)
**************
Through 13 games, I accurately predicted 11 games, with only two surprises, but the net gain was zilch, as the predictioned and actual records both totalled and 11-2 record.
Below are the predictions for the final seven games as I first called them. Think Wildly Optimistic Predictions™ Classic
9/26 @BAL - Johnson v. Lopez
(L)(W 11-3)9/27 @BAL - Mussina v. Chen
(L)(9-17)9/28 @BAL - Chacon v. Cabrera (W 2-1)
9/29 @BAL - Small v. Bedard (W)
9/30 @BOS - Wang v. Wells (L)
10/1 @BOS - Johnson v. Wakefield (W)
10/2 @BOS - Mussina v. Schilling (W)
Remember, hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things and no good thing ever dies.
If the White Sox win today, do they celebrate? The magic number would still technically be 1, but like you said, the division would be theirs.
So it's a three-way or nothing (hey now).
There's still a slight possibility of a four-way tie. If today -
White Sox lose
Indians lose
Red Sox win
Yankees win
And over the weekend -
Red Sox win 2 of 3
Indians sweep
Then all four teams will finish with 95 wins.
What kind of self respecting man schedules a haircut? I mean I do at the fancy place - but they have a wet bar, a hair washer who makes me feel like a filanderer and I can get a massage there.
Happy ending as well?
Is it even worth flying from Detroit to Cleveland? I guess that's maybe a four-hour drive, so it probably is.
No. White Sox Detroit

Gee, I hope he can deal with all the uncertainty...
Comerica Park to the Metrodome would take a while. Around 10 hours. Stupid Wisconsin being in the way.
Indiana and Illinois too.
First Inning Freddie better stay away today.
I think I'd rather just get on a bus than deal with the airports.
Something tells me that the players don't have to do all the waiting around that the hoi polloi have to put up with.
Never underestimate the ability of a Chicago baseball team to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
Marlon™!!
That CS is looming large right now.
It's good to know that Jason Grilli still sucks.
I still hate you, Jurassic.
Harris' greatest ability is his eye... and what do you know, he walks, setting up the DP.
Unless speed gets a leg injury and gets caught stealing a bunch of times.
These guys must have been training with Carl Lewis behind the scenes.
Ah, a double play for Rowand, so we're not in bizarro world after all.
No, it's a legit establishment. Those in the DC area should check it out.
I also have a place, sans Web site that I can get a walk in cut and shave for $25. America rules!
Is this an uberthread for all these games or just the early game?
Based on the pretty positive response to this expirment last night, we're doing the uberthread until the races are decided... should be clearer tomorrow with just two games in the same thread.
Two funny headlines I've seen at the bottom of the GameDay window:
Angelos expects O's to contend in '06
I initially read that as "Angeles," and I couldn't figure out why they'd care. It's funny either way, I think.
BTF helps out Little League in New Jersey
Which makes sense because that's where the BTF House is going to be.
Don't you remember the XM Radio commercials?
The ad tries its best to imply otherwise. Also I've heard that the candy cane barber pole is the sign for a brothel in Taiwan. Perhaps IronChef can confirm this.
*slowly lifting foam finger and glaring at Biff*
Why are all of the most often repeated commercials so (forget)ing annoying?
Sometimes they design them that way. Ad companies know Carrot Top annoys the hell out of people, but they also know that people will remember him and, by extension, the company he's plugging.
The one that really grinds my gears is the Tom Brady Visa commercials which somebody explains to him, "Tom, we're figurative metaphors." And also redundant repeaters.
We have cable TV in the office, but they claim that we cannot get more than a handful of news channels. It's probably bull(slip), but I plan on watching the last couple of innings at lunch.
Tony.Little.
YOU CAN DO IIIIIIIIIIIT!
Basedow's hair cracks me up. He tries to get people to take him seriously, but with that part, it just ain't happening.
This game's not over yet - Contreras may well be needed for a tiebreaker on Monday.
Things set up pretty nicely, when you think about it - Contreras either gets the tiebreaker start or he gets the ball for game 1. Either way, the Sox have their go-to guy available when they need him.
6 more outs!
I'm going to, uh, lunch.
