Reasons to be Optimistic!

[SchillingIsTheNatural]

Maybe the Yanks won this series (which I predicted would happen) but they are running out of time and chances are we win 2 of 3 last weekend of the year.

 

Red Sox Schedule:

11 Home Games (48-22)

9 Away Games (35-37)

 

Yankees Schedule:

7 Home Game (47-27)

13 Away Games (33-35)

 

Guardians Schedule:

12 Home Games (37-32)

7 Away Games (45-29)

 

worst case scenario....if we win each home series and lost each away series we finish: 11-9....which means the Yanks would have to win every series they have left which 4 are on the road and only 2 at home to go 14-6. Inidans have a better record on the road and 4 of those remaining 7 away games are @Kansas City

I'll feel better when the 4 games against Oakland are over.

[riverside sluggers]

just take one game at a time, it'll be less stressful

Plus, the Yanks have 3 games against TB, I believe it's in TB also.

Yep

 

 

 

But I also think you need to posts the stats agents teams that are over .500 and under .500, and even though the Yankees have had their trouble vs teams under .500, it'll make a big difference

The schedule does favor us, I'm really not that worried about the Yankees right now unless we go into a nose dive we should be fine. We've been holding a a lead of 3 games or less for lie what a month now? Whats 20 more?

[SchillingIsTheNatural]

Here is something else I noticed...the White Sox have a 3 1/2 game lead on us...but only have 7 home games left......we can take this thing its in our reach

[soxie thefangirl]

I agree with that. The White Sox are stagnant of late. The Guardians are only 5 behind them.

[Sizzlin22]

I've also noticed this, I jsut don't want to worry about home field through out untill we clinch the division first.

This is true....but I'm used to looking up then looking behind....I think it would only be right for the Red Sox to play like they are 3 1/2 games out then 3 1/2 games up.

[SchillingIsTheNatural]

You gotta play the games but just some insight.....the upcoming series against Oakland....Barry Zito and Rich Harden will not make an appearance.

[jebargit]

I will feel much better once we get our best lineup out there. Damon is the straw that stirs the drink...

Reason to be Optimistic:

 

The Red Sox are better than the Yankees.

Those games didn't quite go well for TB.
