So I guess we're chasing Houston instead...

[Second Base]

I think I automatically assumed we would be taking the Wild Card from Texas. I never actually pictured anyone catching Houston. But Texas is winning big and is about to go a game and a half up in the standings. Weird, I know. They just don't seem like they're that good. But then again, I also assumed Trout would run away with MVP, the Nats would win the NL East by a landslide, Houston Street would hold a 3-run lead with 2 outs, 2 strikes and nobody on, and that Seattle and the Angels would by far be the best two teams in the division.

No problem.

Now the Angels just need to beat up on the Twins and then take another series win from the Astros.

So too early to get the Rangers World Champions 2015 tattoo to match the other one?

I have a friend who has pledged to tattoo Cubs on his ass in huge type (two letters each cheek) if the Cubs win the series. It would be especially embarrassing if my buddy jumped the gun due to the Back to the Future 2 movie predicting the win... not that I'd be able to tell one way or another.

We are more like dog chasing his own tail.

saw the thread title and was gonna post the same thing.  

 

it's actually the perfect description of what we've been doing all year.

rangers give me a boner

much respect to them. pretty much came out of nowhere

[Troll Daddy]

Rangers picked up two quality staters and some help on the bench. Who here didn't see this coming?

[hen3ry]

We're chasing Seattle.  Only 4 games ahead, we've got time to catch em.

This team ain't chasing shit.

This team ain't chasing shit.

Actually they are, and I believe that they have caught it.

Yeah, it was supposed to be another few years before the Astros finished above .500

Really wish it was the Angels and Mariners on top of the West instead of the Texas rednecks on top of the division.

I'd rather see the Mariners in 1st place and the Angels in 2nd instead of both Texas teams in 1st & 2nd.

Indians are about to pass us in the chase for the second wild card.

[Angel Oracle]

Indians are now the 2nd WC darkhorse, just 4 in back of staggering Houston and just 2.5 in back of the Twins.

Kluber, Salazar, Carrasco, and Bauer give them a chance to continue this currently 23-13 run. 

 

Indians become big time Halos fans over the next week. 

[Pujols4MVP]

I can't believe the twins are in contention for a wildcard spot, they also were supposed to suck for another 3 years.

[Kenny]

I like Houston. I want them to do good, but now would be a bad time for the Angels.
