    I think we'd STILL have the best odds. The tiebreaker with only 4 games left is a huge deal and the schedules start to even up. Our series against TBR is probably easier than NYY against Baltimore. Fried and Rodon won't be starting against the Orioles but Rogers and Bradish will. But it's obviously best to just take care of business tonight and if we do the Yanks are put in a fairly tough spot. Gaining 2 games on us with only 4 to go won't be easy.

    Agreed. We need to go 3-2.

    Jays clinch the AL East if we go 4-1 or better. Otherwise, here are the scenarios where the Yankees would overtake us: TOR: 3-2 NYY: 5-0 TOR: 2-3 NYY: 4-1 TOR: 1-4 NYY: 3-2 TOR: 0-5 NYY: 2-3

    lol let’s see here You’ve been trying (and failing) to clown on me for being too positive and being too much of a thoughtless cheerleader all season. Then when I call you out for being a spaz all season you switch gears and resort to a childish “No you are!” argument. Sad!

    ^Chicken Little here, perhaps the most panicky and reactionary poster in the history of the board, wants to try to gaslight everyone into thinking he’s calm, cool and collected I don’t think so pal lmao

    We still hold the division lead and Fangraphs has us at 75% to win it. The 1-game lead (effectively 2 with the tiebreaker) looks small, but with only 5 games left we’re still in control. This Yankee team gets treated like it's the 1927 version, but they barely slipped past the White Sox tonight. If Chicago can push them, the Orioles can definitely take a game, or even two with Trevor Rogers pitching. The Yankees have made a strong push, but they’re almost out of time. Scenarios: Jays finish 4-1, Yankees can’t catch us Jays finish 3-2, Yankees must go 5-0 Jays finish 2-3, Yankees must go 4-1 Jays finish 1-4, Yankees must go 3-2 Jays finish 0-5, Yankees must go 2-3 Our slump has made this closer than it should be, but still having a 75% chance shows how far ahead we were.

    Your eyes would be correct We had an xBA of .282 to the Sox's .218

    I wonder if they feel that: the division race isn't locked up yet; their internal scouting/data isn't great on Taters; therefore, they aren't comfortable letting him audition for a playoff spot when the games are so important right now. If that's the case, it would be nice if we could effectively wrap the division up ASAP so we can get a look at Taters.

    I remember Kirk was really good at challenges. We should just let him use them all to maximize our chances of getting more of them. If we allow Vladdy to use them, we are probably out after his 1st or 2nd AB of the game.

    Seems like 4-2 is probably a good guess for the Yankees finish with. That's right in line with the 10-5 record they have against the Orioles and White Sox this year, We should probably just finish with two series wins to close it out but if we go 3-3 we very likely win the division. 2-4 even gives us a good chance. 1-5 and we are in some trouble.

    If the Jays finish 4–2 or better, they win the division. If the Jays finish 3–3, the Yankees must finish 6–0. If the Jays finish 2–4, the Yankees must finish 5–1. If the Jays finish 1–5, the Yankees must finish 4–2. If the Jays finish 0–6, the Yankees must finish 3–3.

    God bless the Baltimore Orioles I’ve always had a tremendous amount of respect for that franchise

    Agreed lol. Part of it is the tiebreaker. It's really a 4 game lead, not 3, and with only 9 games left the standings don't capture it as well as laying out the various scenarios. Yankees schedule is cake but they aren't a super team. They are barely going to eclipse 90 wins this year and they blow games to bad teams all the time. They are only 4-3 against the Orioles this year and 3-1 against the White Sox. They are highly unlikely to go 9-0 or 8-1. If they play well they could go 7-2 but they are projected to win 5 or 6. Al East Champs will be easy to make.

    Updated: If the Jays go 6-3, the Yankees can't catch us If the Jays go 5-4, the Yankees would have to go 9-0 to win the division If the Jays go 4-5, the Yankees need to go 8-1 If the Jays go 3-6, the Yankees need to go 7-2 If the Jays go 2-7, the Yankees need to go 6-3 If the Jays go 1-8, the Yankees need to go 5-4 If the Jays go 0-9, the Yankees need to go 4-5

    The slowest recorded home run trot was Rhys Hoskins who did it in 34.2 seconds. Santander's was 41 seconds, a full 7 seconds slower. It was so slow that Schneider checked in to see if he was hurt lol. Has to be a reason for it. I checked the previous pitches in the AB and the pitcher came pretty far inside twice. And if you look in the highlight he starts talking to the left side of the infield. It starts with the SS who is a former teammate of his in Andrew Velazquez. There was probably some beef earlier in the game or something.

    You also have to wonder how much the Yanks will even try to win the division. They've got some old players and some that are dinged up and they will want to line up Fried/Rodon to pitch the wild card games. They'll want their top relievers to be fresh as well. They might prioritize rest during that final homestand instead of trying to go all out for a long shot AL East bid.
  20. Terminator
    Don't worry you guys. I'm not bothered in the slightest about what happened in Tampa. The Yankees are probably going to win 6 of their final 10. They could win 7 and I wouldn't be surprised. 8 is probably the max. The Jays need to simply try and win each remaining series and that right there would take care of it no matter what. But truthfully, as long as they don't get swept in any of the 3 remaining series they will be fine.

    3.5 up on the Yankees with 9 games left on our schedule. Jays: @ KC, vs. BOS, vs. TB Yankees: @ BAL (x 4), vs. CWS, vs. BAL If the Jays go 6-3, the Yanks can't catch us If the Jays go 5-4, the Yankees would have to go 10-0 to win the division If the Jays go 4-5, the Yankees need to go 9-1 If the Jays go 3-6, the Yankees need to go 8-2 If the Jays go 2-7, the Yankees need to go 7-3 If the Jays go 1-8, the Yankees need to go 6-4 If the Jays go 0-9, the Yankees need to go 5-5 Yankees schedule is cake but some of these pitching matchups might make it tougher than it seems. They are lined up to face Trevor Rogers twice and the ChiSox are lined up to start Smith, Perez and Martin which isn't awful.

    Tony Taters just homered again in Buffalo He's ready
  23. Terminator
    Baz is hitting his spots

    Come on ump

    My guess is France makes the cut. They’ll likely want to rest Vlad here and there down the stretch and nobody else really covers first base. Also, adding Taters probably bumps Lukes to the bench more often, which makes Loperfido feel a bit redundant. Come playoff time I'm not sure how much use there is for France though.
