Last time to dwell on what ifs but what if
Pressly doesn't give up meatball to Baltimore
You beat KC one more time
You beat Oak one more time
You don't let the Yankees sweep you
You play Chaz 10 more games
You play Diaz 10 more times
And we would've already won the division


Let's celebrate a playoff berth tonight and talk about what ifs on Monday

I also like the announcement that TK, Blum, and Julia will be doing postgame coverage after the playoff games. That's something that's been lacking with the network.

Mariner fans don't want us winning the division.

Now go back and do the Ws we got that maybe we shouldn't have. We swept the Braves in Atlanta. Took 2 of 3 or swept Rays that same week. It's 162 games, and we got hit big time by injuries and lost 12 games on schedule vs Angels and As. Be happy we are in postseason...this is our time now! We are the most experienced team by far on the AL side. Get to the series and see what happens. Maybe its our year to be the big underdog and take down the Dodgers/Braves

I interpreted that as postgame and pregame but still awesome

You're going to have to be much more base with me, I speak east Texas.

What petty f***ers, I wouldn't expect less from that bunch.

I was really hoping for a scenario tomorrow where the rangerettes had to root for us with their playoff hopes on the line. Oh well, F*** SEATTLE.

Props to JV - back to back clutch outings for the hall of famer.

Rangers will be motivated cause I don't think they can get the 6 seed, will either be 2 or 5

And according to 2015 - only one more game for Dusty to make the lineup?! Then it's all FO?!

Which to we want? Is is easier to make the WS if we get wild card, or if we win the division?

Now that playoff spot is clinched and WC starts Tuesday and JV pitched tonight gotta start Pornstache tomorrow no?

If you go with Javier then your WC starters would be Framber-Urquidy-JV

I mean not the worst but you could burn France tomorrow

I basically posed this scenario a few days back. "Do you throw JV in the last game of it means we have a shot to win the division" most said, yes. I think Javier is the play. The bye is way too meaningful to not go for it.

This year the division means a bye past the WC round and home field advantage in the DS. It's significant.

In every other year, the obvious answer is win the division...but with a 50-30 road record so far....not sure this team might be better having to fight on the road

One less round to play and a week off so division.

But you would presumably start Javier then, who would then be unavailable to start in wildcard round if he starts tomorrow

Blue Jays set to throw Gausman… doubt that happens.

Mariners scheduled to throw Kirby. We'll see if that happens and how long he might go.

While I'd love a bye, it might be good playing away from MMP if this season is any indication...

Division. That bye would be huge for our pitching staff

Seeds:

1) Baltimore
2) Texas (Win) / Houston (Win and Texas Loss)
3) Minnesota
4) Tampa Bay
5) Toronto (Win and Texas Win) or (Houston Loss) / Houston (Win and Toronto Loss and Texas Win) / Texas (Loss and Houston Win)
6) Houston (Loss) / Toronto (Loss and Houston Win) or (Win and Houston Win and Texas Loss)

I think I covered every scenario that matters.

Urquidy's start yesterday would make it easier to start Javier tomorrow

Still one might expect Seattle won't play to win tomorrow

the Rays-Blue Jays game tomorrow will be interesting

Gausman was supposed to start for Toronto...but he won't now.

which means the Rays know...Gausman would start against them in game 1 of the wildcard series

so Tampa wants to win tomorrow to push the Jays down to the 6-seed
