dfwabel Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Goodbye Jeff Banister The rumor of him not being the guy for the Rangers rebuild came out yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crabcake Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Showalter's out in Baltimore after the season. Had a great run, is they guy that was responsible for bring baseball relevancy back to Baltimore, and could have maybe been an asset during the rebuild. But I can see the logic behind having a new voice to run the club during the new era. As long as Duquette is gone too I won't be too upset.

FiddySicks Posted September 22, 2018 Author Share Posted September 22, 2018 Meh. You dribble and you shoot. Its not like the A’s are actually going to do anything in the playoffs anyway.

RockyTopper Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 On 9/19/2018 at 3:18 PM, RockyTopper said: Atlanta has a 6 game lead in the East. They just had a pretty ugly showing in St Louis, but at least managed to split the series 2-1. They play the Phillies, who are 6 games back, in a 4 game series, then the Mets for 3, and close the season with a 3 game series in Philly. Meanwhile the Nats are almost caught up to the Phillies for second in the East. The Braves will find a way to collapse. After all, Atlanta's sports tradition must endure. They won the division today! I was just being cynical and predicting a collapse ~ironically~, it's all the big rage with the internet kids these days, honest! ☦ICXC NIKA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olmec Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Yanks punched their ticket to the postseason last night (aka 1 game wild card game) and popped champagne like they won the division. Can't say I agree with busting out the champagne for making it to the 163rd game of the season. Celebrate sure, but champagne showers? Nah, that's for the division winners Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, that's for the division winners Especially for a team that makes the playoffs almost every year like the Yanks. I can’t remember if the 2012 O’s did it but that would be a situation in which it’d be appropriate imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 I'm told the 91 loss Reds played the 102 loss Royals last night. If you watched that, not to mention sat through the rain delay, you deserve some kind of medal. You're a better fan than me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LMU Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 I'm kind of hoping that the Dodgers get swept in Frisco. Maybe that'll give Friedman and Zaidi a swift kick in the ass that you can't build a bullpen out of waiver claims and failed closers and that maybe with the luxury tax reset that they spend money on players that can actually fill holes. And maybe use the outfield logjam as trade bait so that we can end the ridiculous "let's bench our hottest hitter for a week because we're facing a few lefties" strategy.

But seriously, good luck with that. This Giants team has been in a complete free-fall in September, trying to justify Evans’ firing/reassignment and the importance of aging stars.

The Cardinals elimination number is 3 and I won't feel good until it's 0. I need both of the Dodgers and the Rockies to not :censored: this up.

PrimalCookie Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 I can’t believe there could potentially be 2 90-win teams that miss and one sub-90 win team that makes it. The AL is crazy this year, except for, you know, the Central. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
