00:00Guys, if the Red Sox collapse, which, by the way, I spent five minutes saying it's not going to happen.
00:04They're not going to collapse. They're making the playoffs.
00:06I agree with that.
00:06Famous last words.
00:07I don't know.
00:08I'm smashing the panic button.
00:09You're panicking.
00:10I do feel a little differently than you have to pass you.
00:13I feel differently than you get in over them.
00:15Like, they basically have to lose every game the rest of the way for that to happen.
00:19Have you watched them recently?
00:20Yeah, but it's up and down.
00:22If you just keep going at the rate you're going right now, you're in.
00:25Like, you can lose.
00:27I think they could lose two out of every three and still get in.
00:30I said it was 500.
00:31I think it's what you said just there.
00:33Lose two.
00:34So you're thinking that they could lose two out of three and still get in.
00:37Yes.
00:38What's the magic number?
00:39It's still an eight?
00:39I'm not nervous.
00:40Law of averages tells you Cleveland's going to drop off here, too, in the final.
00:43If they haven't lost, I feel like they're in three months.
00:46Doesn't mean it's a predictor.
00:48They just swept the Tigers, though, right?
00:49And you're going to play the Tigers that last series of the season.
00:52The problem is the Guardians are only three and a half back of the Tigers now.
00:56So if there's, like, a crazy close series when they see them again next week,
01:00oh, no, all of a sudden the Tigers are going to be airing out whatever they have in that
01:03final week, too.
01:05It's crazy to think the Blue Jays have less to play for.
01:08One and a half games.
01:09The Red Sox hold on to their spot in the wild card.
01:12Guardians one and a half games back of them.
01:14That's where things stand.
01:17They seem like that team that's making a playoff push right now.
01:20There's always one.
01:22It goes on a run.
01:23You're right.
01:25And you are still.
01:27My God, are you still.
01:29And you thought Bayou was so damn good.
01:32You thought, oh, God, pitching's going to carry them.
01:34Pitching's going to get them there.
01:35Pitching's going to win the short series.
01:38They're not good.
01:40They're not good anymore.
01:42Nine games to go.
01:43Can they go three and six and get in?
01:47I think that's, like, rate the line.
01:49I think you might have to go four and five.
01:51Okay, so four and five.
01:52Fine, let's call it that.
01:53You can go below 500.
01:55You can go four and five, and you're in.
01:58They can.
01:59They can go four and five and get in.
02:00That's a better line.
02:01That's better than two out of three.
02:02That feels better.
02:03Let's call it four out of nine.
02:05I would rather.
02:05You don't think they can win four out of nine games?
02:07I would rather they miss the playoffs.
02:09That would put them right at 87 games.
02:11Why?
02:11Is there a pause?
02:12Is there a shot in the arm?
02:14No, no, no.
02:15You want them to limp in looking like this?
02:17That's what 2021 was.
02:18Yes, always.
02:18You showed up in the last series against the Nationals.
02:21That was it.
02:21You don't want to miss a playoff.
02:22You had no expectations going in.
02:22With nine games left in 2021, you were up two and a half games.
02:26You lost that before the last series of the season
02:29and then still pulled yourself out of it in that series against the Nationals.
02:32What's the difference?
02:33You don't have Rafael Devers probably hitting a couple
02:35clutch homers in that last series to put you over the top.
02:37Oh, he's not here anymore?
02:39I didn't notice.
02:39It's 2021, guys.
02:40Come on.
02:4287 gets him in.
02:4487.
02:45That's the magic.
02:46I missed the documentary about them.
02:4787 wins will get him in.
02:4887 wins will get him in.
