| You're talking AL right? lol
Don't be so sure about the wild card coming out of the Central just yet. The Twins haven't hit a wall yet, and they seem to be fodder for the White Sox this year and still have (I think) 13 games left with them. Still plenty of time for someone to make some wild card ground out of the East.
As far as the White Sox go, they've hit a buzzsaw also known as the Diamondbacks. They're game tonight just went final and its another beatdown at the hands of Arizona. They haven't been pummelled like this all season. I think the Sox are running into 3 problems:
1) Contreras and Hernandez are unreliable anymore in the starting rotation.
2) Aside from 3 guys, their bullpen is full of arsonists.
3) Frank Thomas is becoming "Bad Frank" again and its causing some behind the scenes trouble.
I still think they're going to win the Central though, but it won't be easy. I still think Minnesota is going to slump a bit though, but it will probably take about 94-97 wins to take the division |
