With the final days counting down, there are plenty of races to be going around:
Chicago vs Minnesota
After losing 5 in a row the Whitesox have watched the red hot twins takeover the Central. If the twins can hold on to this slight 1/2 game lead it will be an amazing comeback. The current scores are:
Whitesox 3 - Cleveland 1 bot 6th
Twins 2 - Kansas City top 5th
Mets vs Brewers
After the mid accusation of CC Sabathia the Brewers have been gaining ground on the New York Mets. Well, of course the mets are struggling, its the end of the year, and the Brewers are just as alive as the Mets. Its a tie between the two and will take one game to decide who continues into October, and who goes home early. Both teams came in with high expectations. It's only too bad the Brewers have the Cubs in the same division. As for the Mets, they had their chance and blew it to the fightin' Phils. It will be exciting to see who comes away with the Wild Card.
Scoreboard update:
Brewers 0 - Cubs 1 bot 7th
Mets 2 - Marlins 2 top 7th
After the Whitesox beat the Tigers today in a must win situation, they now force a tiebreaking game for the Central division. This is a tough prediction, whitesox have the bats, but the Twins have that great starting pitching.
FINALLY!! Mike Mussina for the first time in his great career has got 20 wins in one season. The win came from a 6-2 victory of the Boston Red Sox this afternoon. Many believe all Mussina needed was one 20 win season to be considered a Hall of Famer. Well i always believed he would make it to the hall, and hopefully this win will garuntee him a spot. The question now will be if he plays next season.
Just when you thought it couldnt happen again, it did. The collapse that shocked all of baseball in 07' occured once again this year. The mets seem to only have losing records when games matter, which is in september. After Church flied out deep to center to end it, there was a bit of deja vu feeling in Flushing, New York. So its offical, the mets kinda suck.
