2022 Season | Series #46 | Twins @ Guardians | Sep. 16-19, 2022

[Lee]

I did the math in my magic number thread.

Minn is eliminated in 8 games (so technically still alive but <1% chance as they need to win out and Chi/Cle to lose out)

3 Key scenarios for next 3 days

We lose all 3 games in Chi town -- Chicago still need to win more in final 12 than us to win division thus we lose division Cle 6-6 means 7-5 for them)
We win 1 game in Chi town - Chicago need to win 4 more games than us in final 12 - we go 6-6 they need 10-2) - this is 3 game TB swing
We win 2 games in Chi - Chicago then needs to win 6 more games than us in final 12 - we go 6-6 they need to win out)

We have Tex, Tampa, KC, KC
Chi has Det, Twins, Padres, Twins

I say we Piss @petes999 off putting in the hard work on math and win all 3 in Chicago and fuck up all of his scenarios.

Yeah, fuck you Petes, we won all 3, lol

I love all the day baseball.

What the hell happened? Looks like we got to Sonny early and often. Thought he had spent the last month or two being DOMINANT...

I figured that you can run that scenario for us Lee ... We win 3 in Chi, we basically need to be F'ed you know where as fans to lose division. But, as Browns fans too, we should be use to it.

(Sorry if I offended anyone with my more than colorful analogy -- I did not mean to piss anyone off as my humor is a little off the wall).

 

[KilgoreTrout]

So, in those 8 games that were supposed to decide the division, we took 7 from the Twinkies.

So, the G's basically need to Do a Browns?

Of course, the irony of calling "losing a lead that seems impossible to lose", "doing a Browns" is somewhat painful, given 1997, 2007, 2016, 2017...

2%? More like shmoo percent... Right?

I got cut off because MLB channel was switching to Mariner
game, considered the local market for Montana.

Second time MLBTV has cut off a Guards game this year.

Any time a national network picks up the Cleveland game, I have
to watch the game on that channel as the MLB Extra Innings
package blacks out the Fox Sports feed.

Are you living in Montana? Might be only Guardians fan in entire state?

 

[DCTribefan]

I didn’t realize it was a Fox game. I was able to watch it through Extra Innings and I’m in the NYC area. Of course, I have to watch the Twins postgame now

Twins postgame should be entertaining.

Breaking News ... 538 just put Cleveland WS odds at 2% (up from 1%). There is a chance

Division odds are now 91%
