You can have your chicken. 

 

Sweep = donuts for the office.

 

White Sox Sweep = Amish donuts!

 

Which will it be?

Yes.

Something about sweeping the Sox is really sweet...oh yeah!  It's that Hawk Harrelson guy!  Love to hear the sound of silence from Hawk.  I'd like to think the Sox are in rebuilding mode, but I think they depleted their farm system during the "All In" era.

You can all thank me for this win. I got irritated and turned off the game the moment Belisle gave up a homer.

Big deal.

 

I got irritated and put my fist through my monitor.

 

And I'm at work.

There is a hole in your selection.

 

I would like to creme Boston, please.

Yankees finish with 14 of their last 17 at home.

Angels finish with 12 of their last 19 at home, but 9 of those 19 games are against Cleveland and Houston.

Orioles finish with 15 on the road and 7 at home with 10 of those games against, NYY, Cleveland, and BoSox.

The key to our Twins will be the 10 game road trip against the Yankees, Detroit, and Cleveland.  Make or break right there.

That looks like playoff baseball right there.

Maybe they can back some of that early season road magic.

I've got tickets to the Twins - Yankees game on September 18th!  Games from here on out should be playoff intensity.

Right now the Astros are a mess. Can't really blame them for their focus being elsewhere. They are fortunate that their lead is so enormous that they can afford to more or less take a week or two off. Sure, I want the Twins to go as far as they can, but it would be truly unfortunate if their season is derailed because of this.

Either of these close enough? 

[Jerr]

I am amazed at these Twins!!!!! I was for Molitor being gone , BUT now I'm AMAZED!!!!!

 

[Craig Arko]

What amazes me is to actually care about the outcome of a Yankees-Red Sox series.

 

So,

I don't mean to be conspiracy theorist, but has anyone seen scraggly scrawny Alan Busenitz and Steve Busenitz in the same room at the same time?

I foresee work investing in video projectors for Chief in a week or so.

While i grant there are no longer any holes, and that each of those undoubtedly taste fine in their own right, it is just not the same...
