Postseason.....So what's everyone's thoughts on who's going to make it and who's not?? It's looking more and more like my Indians are in and that leaves either the BoSox or Yanks out. But still several games left and anything can happen.

My thoughts on the Tribe: I've never seen a team, especially this young, be so confident in my life! They've been flying a bit under the radar until lately, but I think everyone's starting to see how good this team is...Very good starting pitching, best bullpen in the league and you can almost make a case for them having the best offense in the league at least for the last month or two. No selfishness amongst this team and they seem to have a different hero every night. Even with them winning, what seems to be every day, they are still struggling to open up the wildcard lead....quite a race going on.

I know that sounds like it's coming from a "homer" but just watching this team every single day, it's truely a "special" team. 7 games to go.....JUST KEEP WINNING! :D

Love to hear others thoughts on the division and wildcard races.

Thanks BDB. Just got too busy for me at work to do any capping and since I'm sitting on a rather large 40-1 ticket on the Tribe(To win the AL pennant) with all kinds of hedging possibilities if they make the postseason, I just decided to shut it down early this year.

It's definitely going to be an interesting end of the regular season next weekend. Agree with you that the Yanks end up winning their division, but will be tough with their last 7 games on the road and the BoSox's last 7 at home.

How you doing Buddy. Don't be working so hard. How about our Tribe? I love it. I think they make it. along with Ana. Bos and NY. That is if Bueh loses today for the CWS. If the CWS lose today, they will choke this thing away. If they win, I think they hang on and make the playoffs somewhere. And Bos or NY is out. I think today is a big day for the CWS.

Atl, Stl, SD and Hous. Atl and Stl win and Stl to World Series.

I am having a ball with this stuff. Rolling all year. Best year of my life. i missed your plays around here. I always like to see who you like, If i have no play on a game and you took it, I always coattailed. I am flying under the radar here this year. Not to many people notice my plays. At least you don't get bashed that way when you have a loser. Good luck Pete with that Tribe ticket. That is a good shot. A few years ago I had 2000 at 10-1 on Cle to win it all. I still see that line drive going over Nagys F-ing head. Counsel rounding 3rd arms up in the air, and my 20 grand out the window. I hope you have better results than I did.

GO TRIBE!!!!

It's my feeling that CWS won early this year with smoke and mirrors. Won a lot of games they probably should have lost. It's caught up to them the past month. I think the schedule gives CWS a big adv going into the last series but hope not. I'm pulling for you. Good luck

Huge loss yesterday for the Tribe.. Blow a 3-rn first inning lead.. How can Sizemore not catch that ball in center?? Never played looking into the sun before? That loss to me will be the one they will look back on if they don't get in.

The Tribe is fortunate that the Yanks and Bos are playing each other in the last series. If they weren't, I wouldn't like their chances.

I'm biting ..

I'm biting ..

I may be a sucker, but I'm taking the white sox at -340 to win the division.

Plus, I have hedging chance in the series vs. clev this weekend.
