Cubs up 7-0 on White Sox.  A White Sox lost would give the Twins the Central Division title and the #2 seed (unless Twins lose and Oakland wins, the. oak would be #2 seed, Minnesota #3).

The 2 sees would get the top wild card, which would be:

   -- Cleveland if Indians lose to Pirates (currently 4-2 Pittsburgh)

   -- White Sox if Cleveland co was back to beat Pittsburgh

the #3 seed would host Houston.

So we are looking at:

#1 TB hosts #8 (Tor if the Yankees win and Jays lose, otherwise Yankees)

#2 (probably Minn but could be Oak) hosts #7  3rd place ALC (Cleveland unless they come back to win)

#3 (probably Oak but could be Minn) hosts #6 Houston

#4 (second place ALC probably Chicago) hosts #5 (probably Yankees but could be Toronto)

Those of you channel-surfing, I'd recommend TBS for Cubs-White Sox whenever CHC puts Brailyn Marquez in.

They've called him up today doing the K-Rod postseason thing having hid him at the alternate site all summer, and the scouting report is basically straight Aroldis Chapman.

Good play Villar.

Would he be the first Brailyn to pitch in the majors?

    • Love Cole Irvin as the guy who can move around a pitching staff and I'd be fine with him as the 4th/5th starter.   If you can get a guy and bump him into the spot starter/long man role, he will benefit this team more.
    • The #RisingTide doesn't stop when it starts inundating higher value MLB careers. It is an important decision for the Orioles to get right how many from 0-4 out of Heston Kjerstad, Coby Mayo, Jackson Holliday and Samuel Basallo ought to appear in an October 2024 lineup.     This is likely the singular season Corbin Burnes and Samuel Basallo can contribute cWPA to Baltimore. With about half the year to year player fluctuations and injury results in view, you can kind of MadLib the Orioles old outfielders that might still be unconstrained starters on other contenders with LF-CF-RF WAA weaknesses, and a medium strong middle reliever on those teams where maybe there is a 2024 balanced Bat for Arm situation. RF Santander back to Cleveland for Scott Barlow? CF Mullins to LA Dodgers for Daniel Hudson and/or Blake Treinen? LF Hays to Minnesota for Jorge Alcala?
    • IMHO there is close to a zero chance the O's would deal Mayo for Luzardo.  I have doubts we'd trade for him at all, but especially when names like Mayo come up.  Holliday, Mayo, and Basallo are top tier prospects (and Kjerstad is another highly rated one) but Luzardo, while very good, is not worth a top tier prospect. If the Marlins could net Kjerstad in their package I'd call that a win for them, but his inclusion also seems unlikely. To be clear, I'd love to add Luzardo, but like most trade ideas, what we'd give up would have to be agreeable.
    • The very concept is baffling  You are supposed to hit a round ball with an oblong bat and hit it Square.  That is very hard to do  No wonder only a very small % of people on the planet can do it very good.
    • I know the Brewers are in 1st, but I wonder if they'd be interested in trading Devin Williams if it was primarily MLB pieces being swapped. Looking at their roster, I feel they could use an OF and maybe a 1B/DH lefty bat.  When the time comes, I wonder if something built around around Williams for Ohearn, Santander could come into play? Depends on performance and need closer to All Star Break.  If Milwaukee thinks they can make a run and Williams was healthy, Id probably not trade him
    • I have long said that baseball is the ultimate reality show because you just never know what will happen, what personalities will emerge, what fresh talent will shine through.    Very curious to see the show Netflix is doing with the Red Sox this year. I don’t think it will be the last of its kind because behind the scenes of a MLB team for a season is endless drama. 
    • And it really goes hand in hand. He is hanging in there more this year in ABs, getting into deeper counts so he gets a chance to hit some mistakes. That AB last night was the perfect example of it. If my memory serves he laid off one, and fouled off one prior to the hanger.
