Well, of course I know him.
He's me.
Schilling’s also been constantly retweeting anti-Semitic and racist poo poo all week, so airing someone’s cancer diagnosis without their consent is almost tame for him.

When Carlton gets in the booth, he just makes lovely political jokes that the regular announcers ignore, which I guess is the overall SOP for hosting these idiots

I feel bad for the PR/alumni staffer that had to call Wakefield's family and ask if they wanted them to deal with this bullshit so they can be left alone as much as possible. The "how much do you want me to say?" Convo can't be fun, especially if they knew it wasn't one the family wanted to have.

This past week or so has been a land of contrasts.

I wanted the Yanks to lose games Cole didn't start because gently caress Cashman and Hal.
I wanted the Yanks to lose to Toronto to put more distance between Toronto and the Astros in the WC hunt.

BUT

I wanted the young guys to start hitting so there's some degree of hope for the future.
I find the idea of sweeping Toronto at home and causing them to stumble into the playoffs hilarious.

Take me to your Shida

I know everyone is highly invested in the Twins' chase for the #2 seed in the AL so here is the single scenario where that works out

Twins win out to finish 89-73
Mariners sweep the Rangers, both teams finish 89-73
Houston loses at least two games to the Diamondbacks to finish with 74 or 75 losses.

Texas would still win the tiebreak vs Seattle in this scenario because they are currently 8-1 on the season, and then as the division winner they would lose the tiebreak with Minnesota.

If Houston gets into the tie mix then Seattle wins the division because they would have the highest combined winning percentage against the other two teams, and Minnesota loses the tiebreaker with Seattle.

No. They determine tiebreakers by whichever team has won more games/series over the other throughout the year.
