Twins could be the first team to lose over 100 games one season, and make the playoffs the next.

Nats wrap up the East and are only 4 back of the Dodgers for best record. Dodgers come to DC at the end of this week. I think a lot of starters will be resting against the Braves next couple days to prep for a battle for home field.

You know the Dodgers are in a slump when they get swept at home by the Colorado Rockies....

Not that I'm complaining of course.

GO ROCKIES!

These next 4 games for the Rockies are crucial, DBacks are hot and Cards/Brewers are close by.

GO ROCKIES!
The Dodgers picked the right time to go in a slump. They have 3 weeks to snap out of it.
The Indians, however, are in danger of being due for a slump in early October.

Rocks got Grienke out of the way and beat the snakes. I would have been happy with a split, but now hoping for 3.

They're going to be a very tough out for some team next month and potentially into November. They're doesn't seem to be any real weaknesses that will bite them in the post-season.

The Cardinals losing a game or two would be nice :nod:

I would love to at least take 3 of 4 against AZ, but I'd rather have all 4. Am I greedy......maybe :twisted:

AL is still a CF for the WC. A couple of wins or losses can vault or drop you over 3-4 teams.

They'll fuck it up somehow. Watch it be against the Natinals. :ohno:

22 in a row for the Indians. Tied it up with 2 outs in the 9th, and won it in the 10th.

MAGA.

Matt Boyd with the Tigers goes 8 2/3 innings allowing no hits, and finally gives one up. Shit.


Great effort though.
