I’m convinced that Ensberg sold his soul for that one season.  

I am convinced he started thinking too much and worrying about walking too much.  I think the next season he had something like a 230 batting average with a damn near 400 OBP.  Sometimes you have to swing the damn bat.  And this is from a guy who strongly values getting on base.

I wanted to punch him in the face every time he stood there and let a strike go by and followed it with his head all the way into the catchers mitt

And they were always dead center fastballs that looked like half the dudes on this thread would rake.

We need to go 9-1 to win 100.  Might as well fuck around and do it.

This has been my dream since mid July. My guess is that we finish with 97.  I don't know that we want to catch Tampa.  That keeps us with HFA over the Pale hosers.  Just my thought.

Also- we can't possibly win today.  This team doesn't believe in sweeps anymore...

So Oakland could get eliminated today, right?

Yes. From the division title not WC. A loss coupled with an Astros win will do it.

Wow

Did a double take/check of the standings because I knew the magic number was 3… didn’t realize the Mariners were back in front of them and that number applies to them, not the A’s

Yeah the A's are super fucked.  They get us 6 more and Seattle 3 more after today.  Seattle should finish ahead of them.

I tried telling y'all to stop worrying WTF Oakland was going to do several weeks back. The division was already ours back then and the Wild Card was an AL East deal back then.

I've been rooting for Oakland since early August.  I really wanted the first playoffs without both the Yankees and Red Sox in living memory* but it looks like at least 1 is going to make it.

It's pretty amazing the Angels, Orioles, Royals, and Tigers all made the playoffs in one year.

The struggle is very very real

i haven’t been this unproductive at work since… probably the last day game
