    I expected Kay to come up with something better after the home run. How about, ”Royce, makes some noyce.”

    That’s the way to protect the hammy!!!!!!!!

    Thanks to the correction from Nine of Twelve, I'll submit this:
  5. IndianaTwin
    You are correct.

    And Houston defeats Arizona, setting the playoff field.

    With Texas beating Seattle, things are looking clearer. With one game remaining and three tomorrow, here's a summary of the 16 remaining permutations:
  9. IndianaTwin
    And now that we have Tampa Bay 7, Toronto 5, in 10 innings, we are down to 32 permutations: Of note is that, as of now, Toronto is now the most likely Twins opponent. I will update later in the evening.

    Going into today, here's what the 64 permutations of playoff scenarios look like, with three games today and three tomorrow in play.
  11. IndianaTwin
    Pagan with the rare save-a-game-one-day-and-start-the-next opportunity.
  12. IndianaTwin
    Yep. Since he is going today, the Astros can’t use Verlander until Game 3, unless he goes on short rest. Same with Seattle and Castillo.
  13. IndianaTwin
    Correct. They lose two-way ties to both Houston and Texas, but win a three-team tie.
  14. IndianaTwin
    No. If Seattle sweeps the Rangers, they would each have 89 wins. However, both Toronto and Houston have the ability to reach 90 wins or more. If that happens, Houston would win the West (2 seed), Toronto would have the second Wild Card (5 seed), and Texas would have the tie breaker over Seattle for the third Wild Card (6 seed).
  15. IndianaTwin
    As for the Twins opponent, Houston went from a 40 percent chance of being the sixth seed to a 45 percent chance over the course of the day. Toronto fell from 29 percent to 25. Seattle fell from 27 to 19 percent, and Texas increased from 4 to 11. Toronto clinches a playoff spot with a win or a Seattle loss. Texas and Houston also clinch with a win.
  16. IndianaTwin
    And Seattle stayed alive in the AL West race with a win over Texas, leaving us with 64 permutations: The biggest winner for the day was Houston, which went from a 73 percent likelihood of making the playoffs to 81 percent. With its win, Toronto went from 92 to 95 percent. Despite its win, Seattle became less likely to qualify, since Houston's and Toronto's wins hurt them more than their own win helped them. And Texas went from a near-certainty at 98 percent to a still very-likely 91 percent.
  17. IndianaTwin
    And following the Houston win over Arizona, we're down to 128 permutations on seven remaining games:
  18. IndianaTwin
    Following the Toronto win, here is the permutation summary for the AL with eight significant games remaining:

    I was eating chicken before it even started. 😃
  20. IndianaTwin
    Of note, ChiSox lose, meaning they need to take both remaining games against San Diego to avoid a 100-loss season. Let's go, Padres!
  21. IndianaTwin
    Should we over-react to one game in Colorado and push for Luplow to make the roster?
  22. IndianaTwin
    With Toronto having defeated Tampa Bay, there are still 256 permutations of results from the three series that affect AL seeding. Here's the percentages on each combination of seedings:
  23. IndianaTwin
    It's being reported that ESPN has updated the schedule even further for Tuesday. Their search function reports (all times Eastern): ABC at 2 p.m. ESPN at 4:30 and 7:30 p.m. ESPN 2 at 7 p.m. Again, there may be more tinkering, but it looks like they are accommodating having Eastern and Central locations.
  24. IndianaTwin
    With the Twins playing in Colorado, here’s a tidbit I read today. Did you know that in the olden days, Cowboys would hang their lanterns on their seat when they were riding at night? It was an early form of saddle light navigation.
  25. IndianaTwin
    There are 512 permutations on the three three-game series that affect the AL's seeding. In some working through the tiebreakers, if all games were coin flips, the likelihood of seedings appear to be these: That was my work on a spreadsheet. One of the formulas comes out as this, however, so I'm not going to bet my life on scoring 100 percent! It was fun giving it a whirl, however. =IF(BA490=91,"TOR",IF(AX490=90,"Tex",IF(AY490=90,"Hou",IF(AZ490=90,"Tor",IF(AND(BB490=1,AW490=89),"Sea",IF(AND(BB490=1,AY490=89),"Hou",IF(AND(BB490=1,AZ490=89),"Tor",IF(AND(BB490=3,AY490=0),"Tex",IF(AND(BB490=3,AW490=0),"Hou",IF(AND(BB490=2,AY490=89,AZ490=89),"Hou",IF(AND(BB490=2,AW490=89,AZ490=89),"Sea",IF(AND(BB490,AX490=89,AY490=89),"Hou",IF(AND(BB490=2,AW490=89,AX490=89),"Tex",IF(AND(BC490=1,AZ490=88),"Tor",IF(BC490=3,"Sea",IF(AW490=AZ490,"Sea","Hou"))))))))))))))))
