    Well, we probably have to play 1 of the 3. But not all of them.

    You know Maldy's starting with JV, you know Bregman's at 3B.

    Dubon as "personal centerfielder" is the questionmark

    Feel like he's been doing that all year. Would love to find a way to steal the division and give the arms a week off before the ALDS.

    Even in last year's WS game 3 relief outing... him an Cy Backe, something to be said about stepping up on the biggest stages.

    While it makes sense to prefer the Rangers win the division over the M's since we play better against the Rangers, I'll be damned if I want all the bandwagon Rangers fans around me to be able to gloat about a division title. Go M's!

    An easy way to think about scenarios:

    Win 1 of the next two and the Astros are in as a WC
    Win the next 2 and the Astros are West champs if the Rangers win fewer than 2, WC otherwise.
    Lose the next 2, need Seattle to also lose the next 2 for WC.

    Bregman's breaking out of it. Dubon drove in the winning run in our last two wins (before yesterday, I mean) and I feel like his defense has been very good. I admit that's a cherry-picked statistic

    I get the feeling Dusty is being careful with him so we’ll see if he goes back to back especially since he was sore again and was out a week so soon after playing finally. Good chance Dubon is starting in CF tonight so just have a feeling he rolls with Chas in LF but we will see.

    Ryan Pressley has been the best reliever in baseball in the postseason.

    I hope we never get rid of him.
