Minnesota (77-83) at Boston (93-65)

7:05 ET, Timmy (16-12, 4.80 ERA) vs. Carlos Silva (13-14, 4.22 ERA)

Here it is...the beginning of meaningless baseball. We've clinched the division and now we have to duke it out with Cleveland and LA from across the nation to get the best record. Honestly, I'm on such a high right now about winning the division. I think the team is too and if we win tonight that will give us a lot of momentum heading in October.

Around the League:
Halos (Escobar) at Oakland (Braden)
MFY (Petitte) at Baltimore (Cabrera)
Tribe (Westbrook) at Kansas City (Meche)

None of the matchups look that great for us except for Cleveland's game...which is the one that matters most. Here's what the standings look like for best record:

CLE -
BOS -
LAA 2
MFY 3
DET 8 (Mathematically Eliminated)

It's definitely doable. And being able to choose which series we want has a lot of ramifications (either to help us or to try to screw someone else).
