Yes. Since @grayruby has essentially tanked this week you aren't out of it but you need a big week.

Oh, I'm pretty well out of it. I can't believe how quickly the summer has passed.

I don't think you are out of it. You are 15 from Turd. You are going to need another Dbacks like week. The Red Sox with the 8 game week are a complete wild card. Could easily a +/- 10 swing either way.

I can't believe all three of us who took the D-Backs are still in last place, after their huge week.

I have to admit I am somewhat rooting for you. You are now 2nd place in the tiebreaker. This has the makings of the greatest comeback back in Stacker Sports pools history. Brewers up a whopping +22 runs this week thanks in large part to a 14-0 win today.

You are down by 11 runs with 2 games to go. A couple other players hot on your heels but you are solely in 2nd.

I'm not sure if you recognized Milwaukee's finest in that photo.

Let's go Brewer's! Do it for the Fonz!

Went right over my head. I recognized Fonzie from Happy Days but didn't make the Milwaukee connection.

I've never seen the Fonzie statue in Milwaukee, but it's one of their big tourist spots. I did see his jacket in the Smithsonian, though.

Run differential tells me I was barely avoiding strikes with 3-3 weeks

Requires some luck. You can have a 3-3 week where all games were close except one that was a blow out and that really bolsters you or sinks you.

Run differential is a good proxy for how good a team is in a season. I am not sure it says much in a given week and since we are picking a new team each week I think it is a lot of luck.

Good catch. I jumped into a phone booth. Took off my MLB uniform and put on my NFL gear. Post coming today. Working on now.

I think many of my winning weeks still had negative run differentials and my strikes came with truly catastrophic losses.

Blasphemy. The Red Sox can have a positive run differential playing 8 games in 7 days right, right?

They look shaky but blue jays have been disappointing

Blue Jays are hot right now. 6 in a row. The Jays won both games of the double header last night and dropped -7 runs on Red Sox.

Damn

Blue Jays are copying Arizona lol

Still 3 more games in the series but the Red Sox look awful right now. I think they made 6 errors yesterday.
