Elimination Watch

Home / Baseball / Elimination Watch

crushedIt’s a little too early to start talking about magic numbers (the minimum of any team right now is 16 for the Orioles).  What we can start talking about is teams that are being mathematically eliminated.  You know – the teams that probably everyone stopped caring about months ago except for their die hard fans?

Who has gone so far:

Texas Rangers – First at something!  That is if you want to count first to being eliminated as an accomplishment.

Who is Next:

Colorado Rockies
Elimination Number = 1

Houston Astros
Elimination Number = 1

Who will go first?

The Astros have been sitting at one for several games and thanks to a two game sweep of the first place Angels, they are hanging on by a thread.  The Angels are now off to the play the Twin while the Astros have Oakland.  In the NL, Colorado is off to San Diego while the first place Dodgers have Arizona.  Neither of the teams play today.

Prediction: Astros eliminated Friday.  Rockies Eliminated Saturday.

Playoff hopes being crushed soon:

Red Sox, Diamondbacks
