Explain to me that 99 percent probability again?

As bad as the O's are, other teams need to win most of their games, and hell, they tend to get in the way of one another too.

 

It's all about probability.

I know a bit about the permutations involved and there is no way they ate 99 %. 90+%. Sure

Sad.

Early afternoon game on Thursday. Just think, by this time tomorrow we could be 84-69.

[Nigel Tufnel]

The Twins ended up losing, so that's good news.

[cprenegade]

It seems highly unlikely that the Orioles would miss the playoffs altogether, but it may not be as impossible as people might think.  After tonight they have one game left against SF, Three against Detroit who is fighting for the last playoff spot, three against the Yankees, who might have the division clinched by then but are still fighting for #1 seed, and three against Minnesota who is still fighting for the last playoff spot.  If they play like they have been playing those games will all be tough.  

 

I would still put my money on them making the playoffs, but I don't know if 99% is correct.

Kinda don't care. Was more excited about the 2016 team.

[Pedro Cerrano]

Oh yea. The caring is done

[makoman]

We're 4 up on the Twins, 4.5 up on the Tigers if they win (they are up 4-1 in the 7th). One of the 3 is missing the playoffs unless the Royals collapse too. We play 3 against each, so if we get swept by either (or both) it's problematic. They will probably make it but 99% seems pretty high.

I won't be upset if they don't make it. I'm ready for this version of Orioles baseball to be over.

[NewMarketSean]

Yup

[JoyinMudville]

I think the 99 percent chance is pure statistics

 

Surely a team can win 3 or 4 games over the course of 12 and surely some other team will lose 3 or 2.

 

The way this team is playing, winning even 3 games seems like an accomplishment

Maybe the Tigers will go 35-5 to end the year this time.

Giants Yankees ML parlay pays +329

Just sayin’

Once the giants win you can hedge mariners if you really want

+329 hits

Can lead a horse to water. Can’t make it drink.

[Pedro Cerrano]

Os are -135 against Logan Webb tomorrow.

I really can’t believe Vegas is this dumb.

If you wanna toss the Yankees in with the Giants (not even really necessary since SF is +114) you get +305

I actually think NYY may lose tomorrow. They locked up a playoff spot tonight, the division is basically theirs and it’s Clarke Schmidt (maybe still a bit rusty) against Gilbert.

I’ll prolly just throw a few bucks on SF and take my fade Os bankroll to a higher level

We were in first place two weeks ago.  What a disaster.
