Ok this won't be a sports site if we don't start talking about sports just wanted to start a forum about the Indians Wild Card chances cause I love the Tribe. Anyway they lost today but they should have a chance tomorrow with Westbrook pitching. Lemme see what you guys think.

I think they have a shot. It's basically gonna come down between them, the Yankees, and the A's/Angels (depending who wins the AL West) for the wild card berth.

Yeah, they definitely still have a shot, but I think the experience and the explosive offense of the Yankees team will be enough to overcome the Indians and A's. And I think Oakland has enough pitching to finish second in the Wild Card race.

What about the Twins? The Twins pitching is better than the A's pitching
Santana > Zito (No matter what any1 says) Radke = Harden (at the moment) and so on and so forth.

Currently, Harden is better than any Twins starter

i have to agree that if i could take santana or harden, i'd go with johan. the twins and a's bullpens are about even, oakland still has the superior starting pitching, and minnesota has a better offense, even without hunter. so the two teams are pretty well evened out. i still say that oakland will have enough to stay ahead of the twins in the wild card standings.

The Twins are all but done imo. Santana has been rediculous but he needs help. The Indians are still my pick for the AL Wildcard. I think the most trouble for the Indians will be the yankees. The A's and Angels will break away from each other one way or another. But it should be one of the best WC races in recent history, in BOTH leagues.

I think the Indians win the WC and the A's win the West and eventually take home the trophy
