Winnah! Let's see if we can't put the Royals out of their misery tomorrow and Sunday.

 

Not after she got a good look at me.

 

Scared her off, did you?

That's true, but with a second wild card, that is a bit skewed to compare it to other seasons without it. But it will still be history if it happens.... and over 100 games lost!

She saw what your grandson would look like in the future and got out as quickly as possible.

I suppose she liked dating an older man.  

 

[it is nice to see how many different people on this team have come through at different times.  It is not just one or two people carrying the team.]

Fun game. Hope nothing's wrong with Erv.

Stating the obvious - but we are approaching mid-September and the Twins are still relevant. That is just nice to say.

Tom Haneman looks like he should be managing a gothic, supposedly undead, professional wrestler.

After tonight, if the Mariners beat the Angels (maybe even if not) it'll more likely than not that they make the playoffs (odds over 50% per BR).

The DBacks' 13-game win streak is in jeopardy, down 8-0 to Padres.

 

Check that, they've scored 5 to make it 8-5 in the sixth.

 

In the AL, the Yankees, Orioles, Rays, and Royals all lost. Angels down 4-2 in the 5th.

 

And Sano hitting and taking fielding tomorrow. Good day for the Twins.

We're stealing all of the Royals' playoff odds percentage points. Gimme more!!!!

One more thing....

Stealing? I kinda think we are earning them fair and square...

Winning them, one might even say, if one were so inclined.

Of course, 10 teams make the playoffs now. That is 1/3 of the league. Up until 1995, there were 4 playoff teams, 1/7 of the league until the Rockies and Marlins joined.

Oh yeah. No one had any favorite fictional tortoises or camel characters they forgot to mention, did they?

 

Thought not...

Just checking.
