Having both Robles and Canzone in the line up is interesting I want to see more. I know Young is a lefty too but Canzone has more power.

Holy mackerel! Shades of... well, I better go back to ignoring the Ms.
I was just checking to see if they were still alive in the wildcard, and Holy Schitt! They're leading the division and on a 10-game win streak!
I'll go back to ignoring them until the playoffs, and hope that simply checking the standings doesn't activate the usual jinx. Of course, the usual jinx was in July, but since it's already mid-September, maybe the jinx has been broken? Or maybe they're just better this year?

Someone in Lake Stevens paid an Etsy Witch to lift any curses on the team. No joke, they're 10-0 since then.

I doubt the witch thing, we all knew this team was better than
how they were preforming.
I think they got together and said enough of this shit.

This is me too. Seems every time I check in on them they start losing. Maybe this is the year! Go M's!

Yeah, they look like they are playing pissed, all while being calm, no matter what the score. When they are locked in, pretty damn hard team to beat. Steaky, for sure, but most teams are. I'm pleasantly shocked they are here and man this is fun.

I haven't seen anything about "magic number" stuff. I saw someone claiming 6 more wins gets us in. Another person said the magic number is 8, but w/no details, I'll wait for something more official. Likely will come by around Sunday or Monday.

It's 8 I think but keeps going down if Texas loses too. I'd like to see Texas win the next 2 though against Houston to give us some cushion before we play Houston in the division race. We're 4 games up on Texas but essentially 5 due to holding the tie breaker.

Look what the M's just did to the Angels this past weekend. Don't f@ck with the Etsy witch bro.

Hey if it takes a witch to make everyone feel good i'll take it. The Red Sox and Cubs had their curses and superstitions that they eventually overcame, maybe this is ours to rally behind.

It's cerebral focus and insane hustle like this that often blazes a team's path to the World Series (and kindly refrain from telling me to chill and pump the brakes thank you very much):

Our offense has gotten all the focus this year, good or bad, but can we just take a second to appreciate the lights-out defense this team manages on a day to day basis?

Me like when we hit a sac fly with a man on 3rd with less than two out. Good going Garver.

Tie game.

That'll probably be the end of Jorge's hit streak right there.

Wanted an insurance run there. Is it too much to ask for our bullpen best to close this one out?
