Still, I do believe if you're good enough that the 5 game series isn't as much of disavantage as everyone makes it out to be. I figure you’re refering to our 2002 & 2006 first rounds loses.

After Sept.17, the Roid Sux have the easiest schedule in baseball. In those 17 games, they only have 3 games of difficulty, which are against us, and every other of the 14 are as easy as it gets. I hope we have a large lead by then, because if its only 3 or 4- I fear greatly another Red Sox comeback. Sorry, I just can't rest until we clinch this freakin division.

Four losses this month (one on the first day)= 12-4 for the month. Even .500 ball the rest of the month means 18-8 for the month, fewest losses in the month for the year so far. Baseball is so much about patience, and October. MLB needs to switch to a 7 games series for all playoff rounds. Makes no sense to have a 162 game season and an ALDS 5 game series. What's two extra games after 162? I think the Yanks would have at least two more rings if the ALDS would have been 7 games.

Winning 110 games and winning the division by 15 games isn't necessary. Winning 100 and winning by the current margin is about right. That still means about 18 more losses for the season. 13 more series and a couple make up games left in the season. A couple more streaks of 5-6 wins in a row in the near future would do it. I can't see Boston making up that much ground unless they somehow sweep a sweries from the yanks. Only 42 games left with a 7 game lead.

Team went from NY on the 12th to seattle on the 13th to Oakloand on the 17th, no days off since the 3rd. Since the 3rd the team is 11-3. Hopefully win the next two have a day off and go to Boston for 3. Oakland is also a crappy place to hit and it seems everthing hit hard was right at someone. Just one of those games.
