It might not even take that many wins. Right now Texas, at .500, is sitting in the last playoff spot. The NL has been dominating the interleague play. Hard to tell which division is the worst, the AL Central or the AL West.

No amount of $2 beers can disguise how dreadful this team is. Hard to identify who besides Ryan will be in demand at the trade deadline.

Prime trade bait.

Athletics. White Sox would play NYY. It would be better to be the #6 seed rather than #5.

Yep. I was thinking of just that analogy while watching him yesterday.

Tied with Toronto for the last playoff spot, and we won the season series against the Blue Jays 4 games to 3, so the tie breaker goes to the Twins. The bad news is the Twins have only played 15 games against teams at .500 or better. Only NYY has fewer, at 10 games. But today, we’d make the...

Another day, another solid start gives way to a bullpen meltdown. Rinse, repeat…..

Regressing to the mean. Solid starts being wasted will likely be the common theme this year, until we shed starters at the trade deadline.

The Eichel-Tuch trade has certainly been a win-win transaction. Buffalo wins first postseason game in 15 years, scoring four goals in the last eight minutes after being shutout for 52.

That 2002 Angels lineup was relentless.

I watched one at-bat last night and saw him issue a four-pitch, bases-loaded walk. I figured it was a microcosm of how the entire season will go and found something else to watch. It’ll probably be weeks before I watch again.

I’m in the “Love Gus Johnson” camp. I also enjoy Minnesota State’s own Brad Nessler. But nobody compares to Ray Christensen calling games on the radio.

He doesn’t have a leg to stand on.

I give a slight edge to the Wild, for the simple reason they didn’t lose 18 consecutive postseason games.

Pohlad is the dealer and only gave him four cards in a game of five card stud. Please Wild, go on a run and take the attention off of this mess of a baseball organization.
