Rangers won't go away. 4-3 Rangers. Swept the Astros.

[43211234]

Ed-Rod vs. Sabathia tomorrow. Red Sox have a chance to win again.

[Dick_Pole]

Rangers won't go away. 4-3 Rangers. Swept the Astros.

 

That's a good thing. One game closer to Houston which could be a competitor for WC1 or for home field should the Jays win the division.

 

Also, yay the Jays are up to 69%

Bottom of 5th

[Trouba95]

Pls Eduardo and Sox...do us on more favour.

[Trouba95]

So what's the most ideal outcome for the O's/Angels series? Angels taking 2/3? Does it depend on how many games we take from the Yanks this wknd?

Umm, wouldn't the most ideal outcome be the A's take 0 of 3? Unless you really want them in the wild card game.

O's vs Angels

But I don't want the O's to catch us if we s*** the bed in NY.

f*** the WC

 

I want the division

[Trouba95]

f*** the WC

 

I want the division

 

I want the division but more importantly I just want to break the 22 yr drought.

[Trouba95]

Texas winning :/

[Trouba95]

O's/Angels tied at 3

[Trouba95]

Rangers up 3-1

[o2cui2i]

Os up 4-3

[Trouba95]

Mariners up 4-3!!

[LTR]

Mariners up 4-3!!

 

Dude, you are way too concerned about Tex. I'm far more concerned about the O's.

[Trouba95]

Angels take the lead 5-4.

[BlueBirdBro]

Trout can blow this game open right now

[Trouba95]

Texas lost, O's just lost. Good day on the OOT.

[Trouba95]

Think I'd like for the O's to be swept this wknd because they have the M's after which they'll probably sweep. I want some more distance between us.

[Trouba95]

...and the A's after.

Even better... div almost 25%... was 7.3% on July 28

 

 

These percentages are such a joke honestly. How can we really have a 77.3% chance to make the playoffs when we are only 3 games up in the wildcard? It just assumes we are going to continue playing exactly how we have been playing in the last 10 games (9-1).

 

Rather just look at games back/future schedule.

Not really. 2 or 3 games over .500 for the rest of the year should get us to the playoffs.

Except it doesn't. It assumes the Jays will play to their talent level, which is a .545 win percentage over the rest of the season (highest in the AL).

 

They have a 77% playoff chance, and their expected win-loss by the end of the year is 87-75.

I have no idea how they calculate it, but if ^ is true why does our playoff chances fluctuate by so much with 50+ games to go. Them winning or losing a game shouldn't affect their talent level.

It also depends on the outcomes of games of other teams in the playoff race. If the Yanks lose 5 in a row and the Jays win 5 in a row, then it stands that the Jays now have a better odds of reaching the playoffs right?

[Trouba95]

Mets/Rays knotted at 4-4

Rangers/M's 3-3
