One would think that whoever wins game one tomorrow will rest starters and bullpen arms in game two.I love chaos
76 iirc?So the Sox went over? What was that number?
Yep.The best thing the team who wins the first game today could do for itself is forfeit the second game.
Yep.
Feels like a split is inevitable.
If I win game 1, I'm resting everyone I can and sending a sacrificial lamb out to pitch Game 2.
Yes. There will be many angles of approach to raising ticket prices, not signing anyone significant and bullshiting the fans that it will be awesome.For what it's worth, I think this winter is going to be fascinating from a Red Sox perspective, on a number of fronts.
The path to 82-80 starts NOWYes. There will be many angles of approach to raising ticket prices, not signing anyone significant and bullshiting the fans that it will be awesome.

So the Royals won yesterday to finish one game up on Mariners but they already clinched even though they split the season series 3-3. So how did they clinch before yesterday?
I also want more chaos. I think it's bullshit to have this wonderful doubleheader final day but then if the games are split the DBacks are eliminated. No. Give me a one game playoff between DBacks and Mets/Braves if games are split. If you want to avoid the chaos win more games.
Good lord if that is the tiebreaker that is complete BS. One division has the White Sox. The other does not.1. If the season series is split, I think the next tie-breaker is record within division by each team.
2. True, too bad the league changed that. The teams - in this case the DBacks - absolutely deserve an elimination game. Going out with the same record by some tie-breaker is a bad look. I'd only do that if it was seeding related, not in or out.
