MLB 2024: robot umps, please

[Spartanforlife4]

Another loss tonight for Chicago. 31-109.

They have to go 4-18 the rest of the way to at least tie their win total from 2020. You know, when they played 102 fewer games.

With the Twins losing last night, the Tigers, Red Sox, and Mariners are only 3 games back of the final wild card.

You don’t have to worry about the Mariners.

 

[Bronco]

You don’t have to worry about the Mariners.

Shouldn't need to worry about the Tigers either, yet here we are.

Right? Sold at the deadline, brought up the rookies, and they just keep winning.

They have went with three starting pitchers the last month and a half. Three!

Athletics say there is no guarantee they would play home playoff games if they make it during the three years in Sacramento.

The move also screws over the AAA team playing there, who also couldn’t host the PCL championship if they qualify, because it’s during the A’s home stand next year. And as a reminder, because of the wear and tear that two full home schedules would do to a field, they’re installing turf in a place that is routinely above 100 degrees.

The White Sox are at 33-113.

Definitely on pace to beat the 2003 Tigers for futility.

Surprisingly only 50 games back. If this season wasn’t so parity filled, or if the schedules were the old division-heavy ones, they could easily be back 60-70 games.

OTOH, they are 21.5 games out of 29th.

1962 Mets finished 60.5 games out. If you remove the 3 game playoff between the Giants and Dodgers, it's only 60 games.

51.5 games out of 1st overall right now. I think this Mets mark of futility is safe.

lol. That's the good stuff.

So how long until the White Sox end in Nashville or Raleigh?

I don't think that will happen. Reinsdorf will sell the team to cash out in the next few years as I'm sure he won't want to deal with "New Stadium BS".

In other news, what the hell happened with the Twin's Single-A catcher?

Dude just up and quit basically.

That’s kind of it. Is there anyone (capable of owning the team) besides Reinsdorf that wants to keep them in Chicago?

Le sigh

Fort Myers coaches were notified by Lakeland coaches about Bender's pitch tipping after the game

That's ethics, Suzyn. \_(ツ)_/

The Twins are done. I’d bet the Tigers and/or the M’s pass them up in the next week or so.

Good...maybe a managerial change then. Not that it matter much with who the owners are...
