Reds 76-55
31 games to play
.500 the rest of the way = 92-70 record

Whiny bitches 69-60
33 games to play
need to go 23-10 (.697) over last 33 games to force tie at 92 wins


Updated as of COB 8/30

Magic number = 27

There is a large fat woman in a helmet humming to herself.

Team of destiny? They won this one in spite of themselves. Give up four SB, make three outs on the basepaths with runners in scoring position, the horrendous sequence of ABs from Stubbs and Janish, and they win anyway. I don't fucking believe it.

Hey now! I don't want to hear any of that from you!


The only thing stronger than my belief in sports jinxes is my belief in math.

If the Reds play at their current .580 clip over the last 31 games they'll end up with 94 wins.

The whiny bald bitches would have to go 25-8 (.758) to force a tie.

I am willing to bet they can't play .760 ball from here on out. They just aren't that good.

Hell, trying to play at a .360 clip is busting their balls lately.

The Cards are choking so bad now, it might not matter how bad the Reds choke down the stretch. *knock on wood*

Pinch hitting a sub .700 OPSing utility infielder for a sub .700 OPSing utility infielder didn't intimidate you?

man, we could virtually end the division race this weekend, going in with a 6 or 7 game lead, and taking revenge, leaving with a 7 or 10 game lead would be end of the race :biggrin:

These are definitely the kind of situations that sort out the pessimists and optimists. What you see as a possible 10 game lead, I am thinking "well, at least they will leave St. Louis in first place."

At this point, the Reds don't even have to sweep, they just have to not be swept. The difference between winning one or winning none would mean being up 3 games or 5 if things stood as they are today.
