Win the remaining series, and the Rangers are in. Most teams would love to have the A's 7 times for the remaining 10 games, but the A's are Ranger-Kryptonite.

You think 7-3 will get us in?
8-2 at a bare minimum. Twins playing trash Detroit._lefraud_ said:

I would be surprised if the Tigers win more than 1 game in the 2 series vs Minnesota.
They are bad and they are tanking -- that's a bad combo. You basically have to hope their bats explode in a game or two.
Feels like 8-2 is what's needed to have a good shot at this thing.

21 blown saves by the Rangers bullpen; convert 11 of those and the Rangers are potentially 87 - 65; +2 in the wildcard race
Elvis getting the silver slugger?
only way 7-3 gets us in, is if Houston dumpsters the Angels, and Cleveland dumpsters the Twins and then they choke a game or two against DetroitHuell Babineaux said:_lefraud_ said:

and I think a team that deserves the playoffs, should be able to sweep teh As here.
Didi is probably his competition, but you gotta think Elvis has been the more valuable hitter of the two this season.94chem said:

Oakland. What a strange place.
It is absolutely brutal that 3 of our 4 division mates are on freaking west coast time. So sick of these 9:05 start times.
Is the Broadway show stomp in town?!?
Leadoff walk followed by a 1-2 homerun.
Just move to the west coast like I did. Problem solved!
Man I just HATE how we seem to always play against the A's. Odor barely missed a 3 run homer there. Brutal.
Friggin Oakland minor league team
Why the **** do we always suck against the lowly flippin A's
Feel like we're going to lose. The number of games we need to win will simply increase. Very frustrating. We just never take care of business against the A's
Need a big hit here
GDit Joey! Can not afford to strike out there
Oh boy. Please accidentally come through here, Odor.
The **** kind of pathetic at bat was that. Good god.
So easy to pitch to Odor.
Oakland is 42-33 at home. 15 more wins at home than on the road. What is it about that place?

But it's always fascinated me how their rag tag teams always seem to be tough to play there. If I had to pick one place every year to not have to play on the road, it would be Oakland. It shouldn't be that way though.
DD better be in this line up the rest of the way. There's something to be said about the record of this ball club when he bats lead off. Offense isn't the same without him leading off.
I think it's a combo of the drums and random noises, the emptiness, and the foul territory.
Just not an inviting place. Really a shame too because it'd be a nice road trip to take but not in that hell hole.

0-4 in the last 4 in Oakland. Go 2.2 and we're only 1.5 back
A''s. Such a weird thorn in our side.
Were the visitor's toilets overflowing, again?!
Can't beat Oakland. Game under 0.500.
This is NOT a playoff team.
