O's hang tough last night...

TB beats Texas.

Magic number still on 3.

Edit: Emoticon should be the :/ one. Not the sad face. Nothing to be sad about.

Losing to John Lackey is one of the worst things ever.

Orioles season pretty much rests on the Houston Astros.

Whatever the calendar says, the playoffs are starting now... Going to the 16th between the O's and Rays. Jeremy Hellickson on to pitch for Tampa now.

Maddon has already emptied the bench of field players. The third catcher on the roster is playing first base.

Bud Norris is on the hill for the Orioles in the 16th, facing Desmond Jennings, who was going to take the night off due to neck stiffness. All hands on deck, though.

At least in the AL East. Cleveland has an easier travel but this is definitely getting interesting!

Should the AL Manager of the Year go to John Farrell or...






Terry Francona?

Yeah...they have it a go. Just not as good as Tampa or Boston this year.

Rather see Baltimore in the postseason than anyone else (other than Tampa, of course). Unfortunately, the scheduling gods put them up against each other in September.

If the yanks made the playoffs, a compelling argument for Girardi could be voiced. He's navigated a real circus troupe/MASH unit hybrid and kept the team focused and in the hunt.

i love that they got metallica to play enter sandman

****ing awesome

tough loss that puts the yanks out the playoffs.

Oh and joe g should top 2 for manager of the year. They had more injury problems than the complaining, chicken and beer eating, *****ing red sox did last year and almost made the playoffs. They never blamed injuries or anything else. They had the overblown a-rod saga, and no one even flinched on that team. They never quit, either. This is easily the most proud i've been of a yankees team since the 2000 team that won the WS.

the chicken and beer team was 2011, and no they didn't have more injuries than that team

Hmmm...

A-Gon, Pedroia, Ellsbury, and Ortiz played 146+ games, Crawford 130, Youk 120, Scutaro 113, etc...

Tex, A-Rod, Jeter, Granderson, etc... pretty much all had a lost season.

It seems like it was the 2010 Red Sox that really took it on the chin moreso than the 2011 squad.

pretty sure it was the starting pitching staff that missed a lot of time, i may be wrong though. token was wrong about the year though

More interesting is that the 2011 chicken and beer team was one game away from making the playoffs. Remember they got pushed out on the last game...

It cost Francona his job.

Valentine did deal with his share of injuries but so did Francona. They had a revolving door starting lineup. It was frustrating because you had NO idea who was going to start from game to game.

Manny carted off with an apparent knee injury.

Hope the kid is ok.

Crappy way to end the season. No reason for him to play again in 13. Regardless of MRI.
