Melky Cabrera may have ended the Yankees' shot at winning the World Series.

I think if anyone has a small chance to make the playoffs, its the Braves. Colorado does have a pretty brutal ending schedule, and the Braves play the Nats for two and the Marlins for one. It probably won't happen, but it could.

The Braves just won't lose right now. Marlins are the obvious test though. But with taking care of the Nats, we can probably afford a loss somewhere.

lol wow Boston is pathetic. 8-0 start against the Yanks this year, now the season series ends at 9-9 and they are swept, Yanks get the division and the best record all in one shot against them.
Definitely think we're getting our first Yanks/Sox ALCS since 2004 tho. |

100 wins and the division wrapped up. Definitely big to have the best record with how good they've been at home.

There we go. Division wrapped up.
For my health, I'm pulling for the Angels. I dunno if I can take an ALCS Yanks/Red Sox right now |

Yanks are gonna be feeling some serious pressure this October. They always do, but this year especially. These 100+ wins will mean nothing without the title.
I'm thinking they make the WS against the Cards. It's really a toss up from there though. If Carpenter and Wainwright are still this hot then, that's a scary 1-2. |

Also, BSPN drives me crazy as usual. The Cards clinched their division yesterday. No mention at all of it. Yanks win the division, and they are doing a complete postseason analysis for them.

Shea basically just had the Miracle Mets, the Buckner Ball, the Piazza HR, and 2 straight collapses. ![]() |

Sweet. We break even with the Red Sox for the year, win the AL East, and home field throughout the playoffs.
All eyes are on the AL Central now. |

God I can't wait for Sunday around 4 PM. Can finally close the book on this upsetting year. 2 more games left against the Nats and 3 against the Stros. Hope they can pull out 3 more wins just to get to 70 (which, admittedly, is better than I thought they'd finish a month ago when Santana went down)

I'm pretty sure losing to the Pirates 11-1 means you shouldn't be in the playoffs
but the way it will work out is the Dodgers taking two of three from the Rockies in LA and the Braves sneaking in |

Wow. Minnesota v. Detroit got postponed, so doubleheader today/tonight with the AL Central on the line. Hopefully Detroit gets at least 1 out of 2, would love to have both though as that would take the magic # to 3(I think?).

Haha, yeah, that won't be happening if we take at least 3 from them in this series, as that would put us up by 5 with only 4 games a piece. Not saying it'll happen, but I will be hugely disappointed to see yet another season go to waste in the final week by Detroit.
However, I've got all the confidence in the world that that will not be the case. |

Rocks will prolly make it Skip. Although I really hope Atlanta gets it, so the Dodgers can play them, instead of the STL.
