    Houston and Seattle tied for AL west. 3 game series between the two starts tomorrow.

    It will pretty much decide fhe al west. If either of them sweep with 6 games left its pretty much over. SEA has COL (the worst team in the league by a large margin) and LAD (one of the better teams but beatable

    HOU has LAA and ATH (BOTH SUCK).

    Dodgers could be resting players depending on standings, but they'd still probably be better than the Angels lol

    These next three games are huge. Win two of three then try and catch the tigers. One game at a time!

    If we win today, which is the biggest if the 3 games... we will have a 3 game lead with the tiebreaker.

    That means tomorrow, even if we were to lose, we would have a 2 game lead. Today is MASSIVE.

    Sounded like Woo was taken out more for precaution than anything. But man he was fucking dealing last night.

    Nah this one was as must win as the 3rd one. This one guarantees we are 2 games up (tie-breaker) minimum after tomorrow.

    That catch by Victor Robles was unreal. Catch of the year, and they will play that for decades to come, especially if we win the division.

    Seattle up 7-1. Cal hit his 58th, JP hit a grand slam!

    So glad to see them finally exorcise (yes HCP that's a different word than exercise, deleted personal insult that was here) the demons they've faced in Houston. Screw the Astros and now with Detroit's collapse the M's could actually have a bye out of the Wild Card round! Up two games on the Tigers and have the tie breaker over them as well as Houston!

    Up 4 on Houston, up 3 on the tigers (i take tie breakers into account since those two teams would both lose out even if they tied us)

    Its been a LONG time since we had a must win series and actually won it.

    Not just won it - swept it in dominating fashion. Truly bizarre stuff from this franchise.

    Bye in the first round and on the opposite side of the bracket from NYY would be ideal.
